On January 15, Li Jiaxin, a 52-year-old actor, posted on Weibo that he had been admitted to the intensive care unit for 48 hours and "picked up a life." According to media reports, Li Jiaxin responded to her own situation through the staff, and the admission was related to her congenital heart structure problem, and it was very dangerous to rescue the situation later. ①
Li Jiaxin
Li Jiaxin's condition came very suddenly, in the early morning of January 11, he suddenly felt that his heart beat faster, reaching 140-150 times per minute, unable to breathe and unstable, the doctor found that his blood pressure reached the level of energy, the oxygen content was very low, and he had to go to the hospital immediately. After being consulted by a cardiothoracic and nephrologist, she was immediately sent to the ICU to draw hydropulmonary hydrops, at that time the cardiopulmonary liver and kidney function had almost stopped, fortunately the mind was still awake, if the blood could not reach the brain will become a vegetative person.
After two hours of rescue in the ICU, the situation improved. Li Jiaxin revealed, "Fortunately, I stayed awake the whole time, and the doctor also told me that if I were to rescue me later, 'the world would almost lose Li Jiaxin'." "At present, Li Jiaxin has left the hospital and will slowly adjust her body. ①
Middle-aged women are prone to heart problems
While we're not sure exactly what Li Ka-hsin's heart problems are, the 52-year-old is at the age of menopause, and women in this age group should indeed pay special attention to heart health.
Why do menopausal women pay special attention to heart health? Xu Guochen, deputy chief physician of the Department of Cardiology of the Fourth Medical Center of the Pla.S. General Hospital, reminded in 2013 in a health newspaper article that menopausal women's cardiovascular disease has increased significantly, and we must be vigilant. ②
Before menopause, high levels of estrogen in women make blood vessels less susceptible to hardening and blockage. After menopause, the estrogen in women's bodies is greatly reduced, and the heart vessels lack cushioning adaptability, so the incidence of cardiovascular disease rises sharply. Coupled with changes in secretion levels during menopause, autonomic nerve dysfunction, there will be upset, sweating and other symptoms, which is easy to make people mistaken for menopausal syndrome and not pay attention to it. These may become potential, different degrees of stress, which will produce a series of damage to the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system.
Therefore, if menopausal women often have extreme fatigue, unable to complete daily work, dizziness, nausea, heart pounding or jumping, fainting, shortness of breath, chest pain or back upper body pressure and other symptoms, they should pay attention to it and go to the hospital in time for examination.
What tests do I do to know if there is a problem with the heart? Three tests can catch heart abnormalities. In 2014, ICU of Harbin Red Cross Central Hospital in Heilongjiang Province, An Yizheng said in a health newspaper that the commonly used tests for the heart, including electrocardiogram, cardiac ultrasound, and coronary angiography, these three tests cannot be replaced by each other. ③
1. Electrocardiogram: check for irregular heart rhythm, premature beats, myocardial infarction, etc
An electrocardiogram is an ecG that checks the electrical activity of the heart, such as arrhythmia, premature beats, and acute myocardial infarction. These diseases are accompanied by changes in the electrical activity of the heart.
But the diagnosis of the ECG depends on the onset or absence of the disease. Therefore, when there is heart discomfort, the first priority is to do an electrocardiogram immediately at the time of onset of the disease, and then find a specialist.
2. Cardiac ultrasound: check for changes in the structure of the heart
Some heart diseases do not affect the ECG, only the structure of the heart itself. For example, the heart is enlarged, the heart contracts are weak, the floodgates of the heart are not closed tightly, and the diagnosis and discovery of these diseases rely more on the ultrasound of the heart, which generally does not ease with the relief of symptoms, so it can be checked at any time.
3. Coronary angiography: check the degree of coronary heart disease
Coronary heart disease, when mild lesions, will have no symptoms, or angina. In severe cases of severe lesions there is a risk of myocardial infarction. Although the ECG can indirectly reflect the lesions at the time of cardiac ischemia, there are still certain errors or missed diagnoses. Therefore, for patients with coronary heart disease, a coronary angiogram should be done to understand the degree of lesions.
Menopausal women do this
1. Eat more beans
Yuan Qiaoying, deputy chief physician of the Department of Nutrition of the Southwest Hospital of the Army Military Medical University, said in a health newspaper article in 2020 that regular consumption of beans and their products can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease caused by the decline in estrogen.
Beans and their products are rich in soybean isoflavones, which can significantly reduce the concentration of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, and soybean isoflavones also have a certain protective and anti-inflammatory effect on blood vessels, which can effectively reduce the formation of atherosclerosis and thrombosis.
Control cholesterol intake and reduce consumption of high-cholesterol foods such as brain flowers, pig skin, animal offal, egg yolks, and roe. ④
2. Eight points full
Jiang Xinghua, chief physician of the Department of Cardiology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, suggested in the Health Times in 2019 that coronary heart patients should not eat too much, should take the method of eating less and more meals, you can eat 4 to 5 meals a day, each meal is eight points full, which is easy to digest, does not affect sleep, and can prevent angina, acute attack of acute myocardial infarction.
At the same time, it is necessary to eat a light diet, do not eat too salty, and the daily salt intake is about 5 grams. ⑤
3. Exercise in the afternoon
Wang Liansheng, chief physician of the Department of Cardiology of Jiangsu Provincial People's Hospital, suggested in a 2015 article in The Health Times that patients with coronary heart disease should exercise in the afternoon.
Getting up early to exercise may induce hypoglycemia, while the body's sweat volatilization, rapid heartbeat, and blood pressure are more likely to rise after exercise, if you do not take medication, it is equivalent to increasing the burden on the heart and other organs of the body.
Afternoon and evening exercise, relatively generous time, and after taking medication or eating food, the physical condition is relatively stable, at this time to carry out moderate exercise, is beneficial to physical and mental health.
No matter what kind of exercise method is used, moderate moderation is very important, in case of discomfort, you should stop exercising in time and seek medical treatment as soon as possible, do not insist on it. ⑥
4. Control your waistline
Tang Chengchun, chief physician of the Department of Cardiology of the Affiliated Zhongda Hospital of Southeast University, said in the Health Times in 2015 that women should pay attention to controlling waist circumference, and women over 50 years old can eat more foods rich in antioxidants and fiber such as spinach, carrots, peaches, strawberries, etc., which can prevent blood pressure and triglycerides from being too high. ⑦
5. Stabilize your mood
When experiencing a stressful event, take the initiative to seek support from relatives, friends or professionals around you to avoid increasing the risk of heart disease due to psycho-emotional factors. ⑦
6. Cardiac examination
Liu Meiyan, chief physician of the Cardiology Department of Beijing Anzhen Hospital, said in a health newspaper in 2017 that before and after menopause, women must check blood pressure, electrocardiogram and cardiac ultrasound every year, which can help women find cardiovascular disease as soon as possible, treat it early, and reduce mortality.
Clinicians should also pay more attention to the group of menopausal women and reduce missed diagnoses and misdiagnoses. ⑧
