How to treat coronary heart disease

Various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are a major killer of human health in today's society. Among the many cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, coronary heart disease is a very common one. If you do not receive timely treatment after suffering from coronary heart disease, the consequences will be very serious. So how to treat coronary heart disease? This is a question that many people want to know. In this article, we will introduce some treatment methods for coronary heart disease.

There are many ways to treat medical diseases, and coronary heart disease is a chronic disease. The treatment of coronary heart disease patients in different stages is also different. The commonly used methods for treating coronary heart disease are:

1) Drug treatment

Generally speaking, drug therapy is the most basic treatment for coronary heart disease, and it is also the most common and effective treatment method. However, this treatment method is generally based on the patient's specific condition and is carried out under the guidance of a doctor. We should know that drug treatment can relieve the symptoms of coronary heart disease and help patients stabilize their condition. Some drugs can also alleviate or reduce the progression of coronary artery sclerosis and actively and effectively control the risk factors that cause vascular sclerosis. This not only treats coronary heart disease but also has a certain preventive effect.

2) Reperfusion therapy

Reperfusion therapy is a method of reopening occluded coronary arteries to restore myocardial perfusion, reduce infarct size, improve hemodynamics, and ultimately restore blood supply to the heart.

3) Heart transplant surgery

Generally speaking, this treatment method is suitable for patients with more serious and advanced coronary heart disease. It is only considered when drug treatment, reperfusion therapy and various interventional treatments are ineffective, and when the patient has severe heart failure or recurrent arrhythmias.

The goal of cardiac rehabilitation is to restore the patient to the optimal physiological, psychological and occupational state, prevent the progression of atherosclerosis in patients with coronary heart disease or with high risk factors, reduce the risk of sudden death or re-infarction due to coronary heart disease, and relieve angina pectoris. The ultimate goal of cardiac rehabilitation is to extend the patient's life as long as possible and restore the patient's ability to move and work.

The above are some acute treatments for coronary heart disease. Experts point out that in addition to receiving regular treatment, the majority of coronary heart disease patients should also pay attention to developing good living and eating habits in their lives, and pay attention to controlling their blood, blood sugar and blood lipids, so as to achieve ideal treatment effects.
