How to prevent cerebrovascular disease in diabetic patients?

  Diabetes can be complicated by ischemic or hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease, which has a high incidence, more than twice that of non-diabetic patients. It is the leading cause of disability and death in diabetic patients. How to prevent cerebrovascular disease? We can reduce the occurrence of cerebrovascular disease and its consequences by noticing the following points in our daily life.  1.Early diagnosis and treatment of diabetes The chance of cerebrovascular disease increases in diabetic patients, and strict control of blood glucose, blood pressure, blood lipids and body weight is required after the diagnosis of diabetes. Studies have shown that macrovascular complications of diabetes cannot be completely avoided by controlling blood sugar alone, but blood pressure must be lowered, blood lipids adjusted to the ideal level, and body weight reduced at the same time. The higher the blood sugar during the cerebrovascular disease, the worse it is after the rain.  2.Improve bad lifestyle Advocate a healthy diet, reduce total calories, eat less fat, eat more coarse grains, vegetables, quit smoking, limit alcohol, low-fat diet. Have proper physical activity.  3.Strengthen the monitoring and prevention of key targets The occurrence of cerebrovascular disease in diabetes is mainly concentrated in the elderly, smokers, fatter people, people with previous cerebrovascular disease, and people with poorly controlled blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipids. For those with a high probability of cerebrovascular disease, while strengthening the corresponding monitoring, lipid-regulating drugs, small doses of aspirin, etc., as well as herbs for blood circulation and blood stasis can be used for prevention.  4, pay attention to “mini-stroke” “mini-stroke” refers to transient ischemic attack (TIA), which may cause lacunar cerebral infarction and does not necessarily leave obvious symptoms. However, “mini-stroke” is often a precursor of cerebrovascular disease, and about 50% of patients develop a real stroke later, so it should not be taken lightly and should be treated promptly.  5, timely medical treatment When symptoms of cerebrovascular disease appear, such as dizziness, headache, vertigo, nausea, numbness, blurred vision, motion loss, etc., immediately take the patient to the hospital for medical treatment. Timely resuscitation is the key to success or failure of treatment. Timely unblocking of cerebrovascular obstruction can reduce the adverse consequences, such as infarction for a long time causing brain tissue necrosis is difficult to recover.
