Studies have shown that women have several times more rheumatic heart disease than men. As a common cardiovascular disease, why are women friends more likely to suffer from rheumatic heart disease? What are the characteristics of female patients with rheumatic heart disease? The reason why women are susceptible to rheumatic heart disease: This is because women are very susceptible to hemolytic streptococcal infection and initial symptoms when they are 12 or 13 years old. After the age of 18, as the heart has been attacked by the bacterium for a long time, some women may develop symptoms such as swelling of the lower limbs, numbness and twitching of the hands and feet. If the disease is allowed to develop, it will deteriorate rapidly in the thirties, especially after the birth of a child, and can only be temporarily solved by medication or surgery. The “deceptive” aspect of wind heart disease is that the patient usually appears to be “red and glowing” and looks healthy and beautiful. In fact, it is the damage to the heart that causes the mitral valve to narrow, blocking the flow of blood from the left atrium to the left ventricle and producing stagnant blood in the lungs that causes the purplish-red appearance of the face and cheekbones. Some characteristics of female patients with rheumatic heart disease: 1, skin: rheumatic fever or rheumatic activity manifested as excessive sweating; cold sweating with pale skin in peripheral circulation failure; severe heart failure may have mild xanthogranuloma subcutaneous nodules around the joints mostly belong to rheumatic fever. 2, cyanosis: is a common sign of cardiovascular disease. When the skin or mucous membrane surface capillary reduction of hemoglobin increases (> 5%) and appears purple, clinically called cyanosis or cyanotic cyanosis. It can be divided into three categories: central cyanosis, peripheral cyanosis and mixed cyanosis. Congestive heart failure is mainly due to peripheral cyanosis due to too slow peripheral circulation and increased oxygen consumption. And cardiac insufficiency is mostly seen in mixed cyanosis. 3.Pulse: Arterial pulsation is the continuation of left ventricular and aortic pulsation, which can reflect the power status of the heart. The heart rate rhythm vascular patency is mostly used clinically by palpation of flexor artery, carotid artery, brachial artery, femoral artery and dorsalis pedis artery. Common pulse abnormalities in heart disease include: irregular pulse, watery pulse, abnormal pulsation of carotid artery and jugular vein, etc. 4.Thorax: pay attention to the respiratory frequency, rhythm and depth, whether there is deformity of the thorax, whether there is kyphosis and scoliosis, whether there are varicose veins in the chest, etc. 5.Peripheral vascular signs: including water rushing pulse. Percussion sound of brachial or femoral artery, increased pulse pressure difference and capillary pulsation in the nail bed or mouth and lips, etc., which are common in aortic valve closure insufficiency, etc. 6, extremities: pay attention to the presence of joint erythema, cardiac edema, active people to the back of the foot ankle anterior tibia obvious.
