On the evening of April 19, at the birthday banquet of a 90-year-old man in Jiangbei District, Chongqing, a female singer in her 30s suddenly fell to the ground while singing, and unfortunately passed away after rescue. It is reported that the female singer has a history of high blood pressure and other medical conditions.
Many people in the market believe that high blood pressure must not fall, and if you fall, your life will be in danger, is this true? What are the causes of high blood pressure falls, and how to avoid them?
The reason for the singer's fall is not clear, some believe that he stepped on the hem of his skirt and fell. If the fall is caused by an external force, the cause of death should be related to traumatic brain injury.
In fact, there is a certain truth in the folk belief that high blood pressure falls are dangerous, and there are three situations of falling:
One is a sudden cerebrovascular accident caused by high blood pressure. If blood pressure is poorly controlled, the most common complication is cerebrovascular accident, which can manifest as cerebral hemorrhage or cerebral infarction. When there is a sudden cerebrovascular accident, the patient will lose consciousness immediately, causing fainting. In this case, regardless of whether the patient faints or not, cerebrovascular accident itself is a very dangerous emergency and can be life-threatening at any time.
The second is acute myocardial infarction caused by high blood pressure. Hypertension can cause atherosclerosis, which can induce the onset of acute myocardial infarction of coronary heart disease. If the blocked blood vessel is at a critical location, such as the trunk or proximal end of the coronary artery, there will be episodes of malignant arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation, and the patient will immediately go into cardiac arrest.
The third is dizziness caused by high blood pressure. When blood pressure is difficult to control, some patients will experience dizziness, spin vision, and patients will be unsteady on their feet and fall. If you accidentally hit the back of your head when you fall, it is easy to cause brain stem hemorrhage and cause accidents.
In this way, high blood pressure is not an accident caused by falls, the first two cases are high blood pressure that causes serious complications first, and it has little to do with the fall itself.
Therefore, patients with hypertension should actively manage their blood pressure in their daily life, and can choose pulli, sartan, sacubitril, valsartan sodium, etc., which can not only lower blood pressure, but also protect blood vessels and reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events.
In order to reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, it is best to do the following:
One is to control your blood pressure. The minimum requirement should be controlled below 140/90mmHg, if there is coronary heart disease, renal insufficiency, cerebral hemorrhage, etc., it is best to control it below 130/80mmHg, which is the most ideal goal.
The second is to keep blood pressure stable. Many people have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents, which has a lot to do with the high and low blood pressure. If the blood pressure suddenly rises, it is easy to increase the risk of cerebral hemorrhage, and if the blood pressure suddenly drops very low, it will increase the possibility of cerebral infarction. Choose long-acting antihypertensive drugs, such as long-acting dipine, puli, sartan, etc., and take one tablet a day to achieve stable blood pressure lowering.
The third is preventive medication. For patients with severe atherosclerosis, especially those with diabetes and a history of stroke, long-term oral aspirin, statins, etc., are needed to prevent the formation of thrombosis and stabilize atherosclerotic plaques, which can significantly reduce the chance of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events.
To sum up, hypertension is not a fear of falling, but a fear of complications, actively manage your blood pressure, pay attention to lifestyle adjustments, in order to prevent the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. #重庆一女歌手寿宴表演时摔倒去世 ##糖尿病高血压并发症#
