In recent years, myocardial infarction has been high and has shown a trend of rejuvenation. The reporter recently interviewed Professor Cao Yu, director of the Department of Cardiovascular Disease of the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, and listened to experts talk about what is myocardial infarction and related prevention and treatment measures.

Experts remind that winter is the season of high incidence of myocardial infarction, and the recent surge in myocardial infarction patients admitted to hospitals needs urgent attention. The prevention and treatment of myocardial infarction should be pushed forward and coronary heart disease should be actively prevented. Patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and other high-risk groups should improve their awareness of the prevention and treatment of myocardial infarction, standardize the use of medicines, and carry emergency drugs with them.

Cao Yu said that myocardial infarction is myocardial necrosis caused by acute coronary artery occlusion leading to acute, persistent myocardial ischemia and hypoxia, which can lead to sudden cardiac arrest and life-threatening death, with high mortality. Some elderly people and cardiovascular disease patients are people with a high incidence of myocardial infarction, and if this part of the population feels chest tightness, chest pain, shortness of breath, back pain, and rest cannot be relieved, they should go to the hospital in time.

Cao Yu reminded that patients with cardiovascular disease, people with a family history of coronary heart disease, in winter, pay special attention to care for heart health, pay attention to cold and warmth, cardiovascular disease patients should not stop the drug independently, to control blood pressure, blood sugar, carry nitroglycerin or quick-acting heart-saving pills, once the sudden myocardial infarction, should dial 120 to the hospital at the first time for medical treatment.

Yu Bo, a doctor of critical care medicine at the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, told reporters that the hospital has recently treated a number of young patients with myocardial infarction, and the causes of the disease are mostly related to bad living habits such as smoking, staying up late, and lack of exercise. It should be noted that the trend of myocardial infarction rejuvenation is obvious, some young people are overloaded, eat irregularly, stay up late, and have symptoms such as persistent chest pain, chest tightness, and cold sweat, but they have not attracted attention, resulting in aggravation of the disease, which in turn leads to sudden acute myocardial infarction, which is life-threatening.

Cao Yu called for the prevention and treatment of myocardial infarction to move forward, and young people should develop the good habit of "protecting the heart", quit smoking and limit alcohol, live regularly, exercise scientifically, conduct regular physical examinations, avoid overload work, keep a happy mood, and avoid heavy oil, heavy salt, and high-sugar diets.
