Should a cardiogram be done, and is it necessary?

Imaging should still be done, to tell you that myocardial infarction is due to the narrowing or occlusion of the blood vessels of the myocardium, resulting in myocardial ischemia and necrosis.

Patients with myocardial infarction do angiography because they can confirm the stenosis of the coronary artery and the degree of stenosis, so as to judge the prognosis or what the risk is in the future, but the most important thing is that there is a ** role. At the same time as the angiography, a stent can be installed for the narrowed blood vessel or the newly occluded blood vessel to perform vascular recanalization and rescue the newly necrotic cardiomyocytes, which is called reperfusion**.

Therefore, it is still recommended to do the imaging, and now the doctors are still more careful, and they say that it should be done with sufficient reasons and certainty. You can communicate with your grandfather and the family, one is to see what the family thinks, if you want to do it, you have to prepare a certain fee, the bracket is not cheap, and an imported one costs one or two hundred thousand. Also, you have to communicate with your grandfather, the hardships are to be eaten, and don't worry too much, after all, the operation is local anesthesia, that is, it is more difficult to lie flat for 12 hours after surgery.

Angiography is a percutaneous vascular puncture, the wound is a puncture point, no suture, coronary angiography has been very mature, has been used as a conventional means for us to diagnose coronary heart disease and coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction. Any invasive tests are dangerous, but relatively safe.

Question 1: Under what circumstances should a stent be done during the angiogram, and after 5-7 days of stabilization, the stent should be decided, and whether a stent is needed is decided according to the results of the imaging; If the contrast shows that the coronary artery stenosis is not more than 70%, drugs can be used**; If it is greater than 70%, you should consider putting a stent.

It is recommended to go to a regular big hospital for imaging, and it will be more prudent to put a stent, and you can come to our hospital if you are willing.

Question 2: The doctor asked my dad to do a cardiogram The cardiogram examination is to determine whether there is a stenosis and the degree of stenosis of the blood vessels that nourish the myocardium, and it is provided for patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, angina, and myocardial infarction. Patients with current symptoms of severe heart failure are not recommended for cardiograms.

Cardiography can be done after the symptoms of heart failure have improved.

Question 3: What kind of condition needs to be done cardiac CT 5 points Cardiac CT: It is mainly to examine the structure of the heart and the blood vessels of the heart, such as various congenital heart diseases, cardiomyopathy, valvular disease, and of course, coronary heart disease.

Cardiac CT: It is to inject vascular contrast agent first, and then see the condition of the heart and blood vessels in the case of CT, but at present, the cardiac CT in some hospitals is low-row, which means that it is not very clear. Cardiac CT is a coronary artery reconstructed after the contrast agent is filled, which costs more than 1,000 yuan, and is basically not guilty, the image is generally clear, and the results are for reference only.

Coronary artery imaging: It is a puncture from the femoral artery or radial artery, using a very thin guidewire along the arterial system to the surface of the heart (i.e., the coronary artery), and a certain dose of contrast agent is injected through the guidewire to see the degree of coronary stenosis in the case of X-ray. The cost of this general hospital is about 5,000 yuan, and if there is medical insurance, it will be reimbursed for about 30 workers and 0, and the purpose of imaging is to determine which branch of the coronary artery has problems and the extent.

Coronary angiography: It is a selective coronary angiography, which costs thousands of dollars, and the image is very clear, which is the gold standard for diagnosis.

Your mother's condition: If the degree of stenosis is relatively low enough not to cause myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia should not be too severe, combined with clinical symptoms, if angina attacks are frequent, unstable angina, or the pain is relatively severe, then consider coronary angiography. In general, intervention can be considered**.

Question 4: Do I need to have a cardiogram without surgery It is necessary to check blood pressure, blood glucose, blood lipids, and blood viscosity after cardiac stenting.

The risk of cardiogram itself is relatively small, except for some patients who are relatively old, or myocardial infarction, heart insufficiency, or senile shock, etc., cardiogram in this condition is relatively risky and extremely easy to cause death. The main examination of cardiogram is to pass a catheter through the aorta, so that the anterior catheter injects a contrast agent into the arterial blood vessels, and then allows X-rays to flow from the contrast agent into the blood vessels to observe and test the patient's blood vessels and the state of the heart.

In fact, cardiogram is a very mature minimally invasive surgery, and there is no harm. It is important to note that some patients may experience bleeding after cardiogram, and the bleeding is also due to the process that may occur during the catheter insertion, and it has little to no effect on the heart and blood vessels themselves, and the impact on the body is not very large.

Question 1: Is there anything wrong with cardiogram Answer: Cardiography is the gold standard for checking coronary blood flow and stenosis.

Suggestions: At present, angiography is also a relatively common diagnostic method. It is recommended to do a coronary angiography, doing a cardiogram is harmful to the body, but it has little effect on the body, do not be nervous.

Question 2: Orange tree sputum-reducing pigment can reduce cardiogram for cardiogram*** Grantham Hospital Hong Kong and the Department of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong have collaborated to use orange tree phlegm-reducing pigment for chronic tracheal disease on patients with heart disease who are preparing to receive radiocontrast media. The results of the study showed that the drug can reduce the incidence of kidney failure in patients by 60%.

Grantham Hospital conducted a clinical study involving 200 coronary cardiovascular patients. **Group of 100 patients received 600 mg of orange tree sputum hormone orally once the day before the contrast and in the morning and evening on the day of the examination. As a result, only 4 people developed kidney failure, compared to 12 people in the control group of 100 people who did not take orange tree phlegm.

Question 3: Does cardiogram have an effect on the body Condition analysis: The contrast agent is currently using a non-iodine contrast agent, and in the past, iodine contrast agents may cause allergies, and in addition, contrast agents may cause contrast nephropathy!

In addition, there may be some other accidents during the imaging process, and there are certain risks associated with invasive examinations. The more mature the technology, the less risky it is. Guidance:

The goal of contrast is to confirm the diagnosis and to prepare for aggressive stenting**, which can be diagnosed without stenting if stenting is not considered regardless of the contrast results**.

What are the harms of cardiogram, and now cardiogram is a common medical method to check the normal condition of the heart, and many people are worried about whether cardiogram will cause some harm to their health? So let's take a look at what are the dangers of cardiogram? Is there a harm?

What are the dangers of cardiogram

The contrast itself is not dangerous, but the process of inserting the femoral artery into the heart can be dangerous, which may worsen the occurrence of atrial fibrillation and the possibility of bleeding from the wound after surgery. Drink plenty of water after the imaging to promote the discharge of the contrast agent and avoid damaging kidney function.

When to do a cardiogram

1. Typical symptoms of ischemic angina: the pain is mainly in the precordial area, and the boundary is clear. It usually radiates to the left shoulder and the inner part of the left arm to the ring finger and little finger, and the pain usually lasts for 3 to 5 hours and then gradually relieves, and can occur once in a few days or weeks, or multiple times a day.

Myocardial nuclide scintigraphy on an exercise plate suggests myocardial ischemia.

2. Atypical angina, manifested as chest tightness, shortness of breath, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, etc., especially in elderly women and diabetic patients. These patients need to distinguish pain from angina pectoris due to other causes.

3. Unexplained arrhythmia, such as malignant ventricular arrhythmia or new conduction block.

Cardiography is a relatively mature operation, and according to the current medical conditions, there is basically no risk. Therefore, when doing cardiogram surgery, do not have too much psychological burden. The heart provides pressure for blood flow and at the same time allows blood to travel to all parts of the body.

So having a good heart is a prerequisite for health.

What are the dangers of cardiogram

The risk of cardiogram itself is small, and some patients will die after the cardiogram examination, and the risk is mainly due to the condition itself. If the patient is old and has myocardial infarction, cardiac insufficiency, shock, etc., the risk of cardiogram is greater.

Some patients will have complications such as atrial fibrillation and bleeding after the cardiogram and need to continue to be admitted to the hospital**. There are two main reasons for this, one is the patient's poor physical condition, and the other is that the cardiogram technology is not in place. This requires patients to go to a regular hospital for examination when choosing a cardiogram hospital.

Professional technology and equipment advantages can reduce the complications of surgery. In addition, relying on modern medical technology, complications after cardiogram are rare and generally do not occur.

The purpose of cardiogram

A cardiogram is a very thin catheter inserted into your aorta and then injected a contrast agent into the blood of the aorta through a small opening in the front of the catheter, so that the X-ray can show the shape of the blood vessels and the heart through the display screen of the contrast agent flowing along the blood vessels.
