The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into. He was immediately taken to a nearby hospital, where his condition was stabilized through medication. The results showed that one coronary artery had a trunk lumen stenosis of more than 75% and required coronary artery bypass surgery. The doctor told Master Li that coronary artery bypass surgery has an “immediate” effect on relieving angina symptoms, and that the patient would be able to move around and even go up and down stairs within a few days after receiving coronary artery bypass surgery. Master Li accepted the doctor’s advice and the surgery was a success. On the day of discharge, the doctor patiently and carefully explained to him the precautions to take after discharge. The eyes of Master Li seemed a little puzzled, as if to say: bypass surgery has been done, how to pay attention to this and that after discharge? After the discharge, moncler outlet, at first still can adhere to the regular follow-up, adhere to the medication. A year later, he felt no different from ordinary people, medication is not on time, and sometimes even play mahjong all night long. Not long ago, moncler outlet online he suddenly felt chest tightness during the morning exercise, inspiratory difficulties, unable to move, a walk to feel the inspiratory difficulties aggravated, along with sweating, lips cyanosis, we rushed him to the hospital emergency, and was later diagnosed as a serious left heart insufficiency after a heart attack, that is, heart failure. After the doctors made every effort to save him, moncler outlet online he came back from the dead again. After this life-and-death disaster, moncler outlet online Li no longer dared to neglect, always insisted on follow-up visits to the clinic, taking medication on time, changing bad habits, no more chest pain, and various examination indicators are gradually improving. At present, the treatment of coronary heart disease has formed a comprehensive treatment model of drug-intervention-bypass. Bypass surgery can effectively relieve symptoms and significantly improve the quality of life, and the advancement of technology has greatly reduced the risk of surgery. However, since the pathological basis of coronary heart disease is atherosclerosis, and atherosclerosis is actually a systemic disease. Coronary artery bypass surgery only takes a small section of the patient’s own artery or vein as a “bridge” to “unblock” one or several severely narrowed coronary artery branches, but it cannot improve the blood flow of other hardened and narrowed vessels, nor can it stop the progress of systemic However, it cannot improve the blood flow in other stenosed vessels, nor can it stop the progress of systemic atherosclerosis. Therefore, coronary artery bypass surgery is not a permanent solution for patients with coronary artery disease. If reasonable maintenance is not carried out in all aspects to control the progress of atherosclerosis, other branches of the coronary arteries and even the newly built “bridges” will still have new “traffic blockages”. “traffic blockage”. How can we protect the “heart bridge”? 1, regular life: after coronary artery bypass surgery, should develop good habits and a healthy lifestyle. Usually should keep optimistic spirit, to ensure emotional stability, especially to avoid large emotional fluctuations, can not stay up late; absolutely quit smoking, but also to avoid passive smoking; limit alcohol consumption, strong wine should be prohibited, yellow wine, beer, wine should also have moderation, to drink less than 15 grams of alcohol per day; the best drink is plain water, sugar-containing drinks should not drink more. 2, reasonable diet: do not think that the post-operative recovery must be supplemented with large fish and meat. Patients with heavy tastes should also not appetize with salty dishes, because if you eat too much salt, you will have excessive sodium intake, which is a risk factor for hypertension (and hypertension is a risk factor for coronary heart disease). Generally speaking, adults can maintain normal needs with a daily salt intake of 5 to 6 grams. Fried foods and fast foods are best to stay away from. The main food should be rice, noodles, with appropriate mix of grains and soy products, lean meat (including chicken, fish, 2 to 3 taels per day), do not eat or eat less fatty meat and animal offal. Cooking with vegetable oil, no or less animal oil. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits containing vitamin E, vitamin C and folic acid, such as spinach, lettuce, cabbage, radish, apple, citrus, etc. Tomatoes, black fungus can be eaten every day, as well as peanut rice, walnuts, etc. can also be eaten regularly. Drinking milk is best skimmed milk. 3, control the “four high”: high blood pressure, high blood fat, high blood sugar and high weight not only increase the burden on the heart, but also make the blood thick, stimulating vascular spasm, vascular intimal hyperplasia or platelet aggregation, inducing coronary heart disease. Therefore, it is important to control blood pressure, blood lipids and blood glucose, and maintain standard weight after surgery. Generally, blood pressure should be kept below 130/80 mmHg, but not too low (high blood pressure increases the burden on the heart, while low blood pressure hinders the flow of blood in the “bridge”). Total cholesterol should be below 4.68 mmol/L, LDL below 2.60 mmol/L, triglycerides below 1.70 mmol/L, and HDL above 1.0 mmol/L. If there is diabetes, fasting blood glucose should be controlled at about 6 mmol/L, 2 hours after meal blood glucose should be controlled at 8 mmol/L or less, and glycosylated hemoglobin should be less than 7%. 4.Adherence to medication: oral anticoagulants such as aspirin and dipyridamole to prevent platelet aggregation are still needed after surgery. Generally, they should be taken for at least one year, which can prevent the formation of thrombus in the “bridge” to varying degrees, thus preventing the blockage of the “bridge”; oral Betalac, etc. to improve the diastolic function of the heart; oral Hersinol, etc. to prevent arterial spasm. The electrocardiogram was regularly monitored during the medication period. Patients can take Western ginseng and other supplements after surgery, but it is best to ask the specialist for guidance, according to the body condition, “Yin and Yang deficiency” separate supplements, do not abuse. 5.Appropriate exercise: Postoperative exercise helps to recover the heart function and promote blood circulation. Patients start rehabilitation exercises from the second day after surgery, and recover better step by step. Most patients can return to work. Generally speaking, the level of postoperative activity should vary according to the preoperative physical condition, activity habits, postoperative cardiac function evaluation and the environment they are in. Aerobic exercise is advocated, such as walking (1 hour per day, in divided sessions), health exercises, and tai chi. No discomfort after the activity, heart rate increase within a certain range, and no significant changes in ECG are appropriate. Here, it is necessary to remind the patient and family members that the pulse must be measured at the beginning of the activity, and the activity should be prepared before the activity to avoid sudden start or sudden stop. Patients are advised to carry first-aid drugs such as nitroglycerin tablets with them when they are active, and once they experience chest tightness, chest pain, breath-holding, dizziness, rapid heartbeat and other uncomfortable symptoms, they should immediately stop their activities and take nitroglycerin tablets and go to the hospital in time. It is important to note that activities should not be carried out immediately after meals; when the weather is bad (rainy, hot or cold weather), the amount of activity should be reduced or suspended. If you want to take a shower after activity, it is best to take a warm shower after 20 minutes of rest. 6.Regular review: In order to understand the patency of the “bridge”, you should follow the doctor’s instructions to regularly visit the cardiology clinic for review, such as electrocardiogram, isotope or even coronary angiography, in order to detect possible problems as early as possible. In conclusion, with the advancement of coronary artery disease treatment technology and the development of bypass surgery, more and more patients will be able to get a “heart bridge” and leave their pain behind. After coronary artery bypass surgery, it is important to take comprehensive measures to maintain the rebuilt “heart bridge”, as long as attention to protect the “heart bridge”, I believe that the life after surgery will be better and better.
