Why does heart paralysis occur? It is important to understand the disease

Cardiac paralysis, like sudden cardiac death, can have very dangerous consequences and can endanger the patient's life. Cardiac paralysis is becoming more and more common nowadays and is often caused by cardiovascular disease. Middle-aged men in particular should take precautions against cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

1. What is "heart palsy"?

Experts explain that when an electric current of 90-100 mA passes through the human body for more than 3 seconds, heart paralysis and ventricular fibrillation will occur. In addition, excessive injection of certain high-solubility solutions (potassium chloride) can also lead to hyperkalemia, which can slow down the heart rate and gradually cause cardiac arrest, leading to death.

2. The most common cause of sudden death in middle-aged men is myocardial infarction

For many middle-aged people, sudden death often occurs due to heart problems, and the most common heart problem is myocardial infarction.

Myocardial infarction is one of the causes of sudden cardiac death. It refers to the situation in which patients with coronary heart disease suffer from coronary artery spasm due to stimulation by excitement, fatigue, anger, cold, full meals, dry stools, etc., which causes platelet activation, blood clots to form, and the myocardium to suffer from ischemia and hypoxia, thus causing myocardial infarction.

In the past, patients with myocardial infarction were all over 50 years old, but now some patients are only in their 30s. The fast pace of work, high pressure in life, busyness and fatigue can not only easily induce chronic diseases that have been suffered in the past, but also easily cause people who are in sub-healthy state to become ill, and even cause unexpected situations such as "death from overwork".

The hospital has also admitted many critically ill patients with acute myocardial infarction and other diseases. These patients are showing a clear trend of getting younger. The triggering factors for many of them are excessive fatigue, too many social engagements, lack of attention to daily physical examinations, and irregular diet, which ultimately lead to myocardial infarction.

3. Prevention is the key to sudden cardiac death

1. Regular review

Test at least once every six months. If you experience severe chest pain, chest tightness, or a sudden drop in blood pressure that lasts for a long time, or if you have a pale complexion or cold sweats, you should seek medical attention immediately.

2. Strengthen self-care

No alcohol, strong tea or coffee

Take precautions in all aspects including food, clothing, housing and transportation. Adhere to a high-protein, high-vitamin, low-fat and low-salt diet, avoid drinking alcohol, strong tea, coffee, and smoking, pay attention to a regular life, regular daily routine, adequate sleep (more than 8 hours), and take a nap.

3. Talk about regulating emotions

Pay attention to mental health and regulate your emotions. Don't be angry or worried, and avoid being too happy or too sad.
