Myocardial infarction is a disease that endangers the heart. Many of its complications are related to the heart. In severe cases, it can cause shock or directly lead to death. Are there any preventive measures for myocardial infarction? Myocardial infarction also has a set of nursing measures. As long as the patient can strictly implement them, combined with the doctor's treatment, myocardial infarction will no longer be a terrible disease. Nursing measures for myocardial infarction: 1. Psychological care Normally, patients should remain mentally comfortable and happy, eliminate tension and fear, pay attention to controlling their emotions and not get excited. And avoid overwork and catching colds. Because these factors can induce angina pectoris and myocardial infarction. 2. Absolute bed rest is required during the acute phase Care should be strengthened during bed rest. Assistance should be provided with eating, washing, urination and defecation to avoid increasing the patient's workload. Later, the amount of activity can be gradually increased according to the condition of the disease. The rest environment should be quiet, comfortable, clean and have appropriate room temperature. 3. Avoid limb thrombosis and constipation Patients who have been bedridden for a long time should perform passive limb movements regularly to avoid limb thrombosis. Constipation can easily occur due to bed rest, changes in environment and bowel movement. Patients should be reminded not to exert excessive force when defecating, as this may increase the workload on the heart, aggravate myocardial hypoxia and endanger life. 4. Eat a light diet Eat foods that are easily digestible, produce less gas, and contain an appropriate amount of vitamins, such as vegetables, fruits, and soy products. Maintain the necessary calories and nutrition every day, eat small meals frequently, avoid increasing the burden on the heart due to overeating, and avoid smoking and drinking. Eat less foods high in cholesterol, such as animal offal, fatty meat and chocolate. People with heart failure and high blood pressure should limit their sodium salt intake. 5. Prevent sudden myocardial infarction Once angina pectoris and myocardial infarction occur, the first thing to do is to let the patient lie down or sit quietly to rest. Do not walk around, and do not move the patient in a hurry. 6. Beware of atypical symptoms Sometimes the symptoms of angina pectoris or myocardial infarction are very atypical. For example, some patients may experience reflex toothache, and some myocardial infarction may precede stomach pain. When encountering this situation, you must be vigilant. Patients with a history of coronary heart disease should not be ignored and should seek medical treatment as soon as possible. Myocardial infarction is preventable. The most effective way to protect your heart and liver in life is to exercise. Life lies in exercise and life comes from the beating of your heart. No matter how old you are, whether you have sports cells or not, as long as you spend a little time every day exercising, I believe myocardial infarction will stay away from you and will never occur in your life. |
