There was a video shocked everyone: a hospital emergency center in just 11 days, a total of 16 cases of sudden death, an average of almost 1.5 cases of unnatural death a day, of which six under 40 years old, the youngest 22 years old! So how should sudden death be prevented? First, how to prevent sudden death in healthy people A significant proportion of sudden deaths occur in people who originally appear to be healthy, so this means that no one should take it lightly. For these people who at least appear normal, there is no better way to prevent sudden death than to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including these points: 1. Healthy diet: A diet that includes vegetables, fruits, whole grains, fat-free or low-fat dairy products, fish, lean meat, poultry, eggs, nuts, seeds, soy products, legumes and vegetable oils (except coconut and palm oil). In addition, sodium, saturated and trans fats, added sugars and alcohol should be limited; 2. Maintain a healthy weight: obesity increases the risk of coronary heart disease, which is one of the major causes of sudden death; 3. Manage stress properly: bad moods can be a trigger for angina or myocardial infarction. Stress can also lead to high blood pressure and other cardiovascular risks. Some of the wrong ways of coping with stress are inherently unhealthy, such as alcohol, tobacco, drugs, overeating, etc. Healthy ways to manage stress include: stress management courses, meditation, relaxation, sports, communication with friends and relatives, etc., seek help from medical professionals; 4, physical activity: some people just die suddenly during exercise, so should you exercise or not? The answer is not to choke, or should exercise, but should be measured and gradual. The benefits of consistent exercise can completely offset the very low risk of sudden death when exercising. In addition, often get up from a sitting chair and walk can reduce the risk of many diseases; 5, quit smoking: smoking is extremely harmful to the heart, and also aggravates other risk factors for heart disease. Last year, the founder of a mobile medical company died suddenly, in a report on him can be seen in his almost smoking. Therefore, smokers must quit, and non-smokers should also try to avoid second-hand smoke. How to prevent sudden death in people with cardiac risk factors Usually the “three highs”: high blood sugar, high blood pressure and high blood lipids, all need to be treated. On the one hand, through the above-mentioned lifestyle treatment, on the other hand, according to medical advice to use drugs. How to prevent sudden death in people who have been rescued from sudden death These people are very lucky, but still have the risk of sudden death again. Some studies have shown that the risk of sudden death can be reduced by an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), which is surgically buried under the skin in the chest or abdomen of a patient and sends an electric shock to normalize the heart rhythm when a dangerous heart rhythm is monitored. In addition, people around the patient should learn the simple technique of CPR, which could potentially save a life if the patient suffers another sudden death!
