Once the frost is over, you who have finished the scaffolding, it is time to do this

Frostfall is the last solar term in autumn, which means that winter is about to begin, and the temperature will gradually decrease. Compared with the brain, the blood vessels in our body will perceive this earlier, so for patients who have just completed stents and are still recovering, there is one Things have to be done quickly, this is blood pressure measurement!

Post-stent surgery + season alternation ≈ recurrence!

The heart stent implanted in the human body can indeed ensure that the blood vessel in this section will not be narrowed for a period of time, but at the same time, it will inevitably cause slight damage to the vascular endothelium, and the damaged endothelium will grow back along the stent.

During the process of “recovery” of blood vessels, the cold stimulation caused by climate change will excite the sympathetic nerves, and the blood vessels will suddenly contract and spasm, and the originally injured blood vessel walls will be “worse” due to blood pressure, and the blood lipids in the blood will be extremely It is easy to deposit on the blood vessel wall to form plaque again. The larger the plaque, the higher the risk of reoperation!

Self-monitoring of blood pressure ≈ prevention of recurrence

In a large double-blind, multicenter clinical study supported by the National Institutes of Health, the results of intensive blood pressure control in 7103 patients with coronary heart disease showed that compared with patients without intensive blood pressure treatment, blood pressure was controlled within the specified range. It can significantly reduce the incidence of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events and cardiac death to 28.5%. 【1】

It is not difficult to see that monitoring blood pressure is of great significance to protect blood vessels and prevent recurrence.

Do coronary heart disease patients without hypertension need blood pressure monitoring?

Many people have no symptoms in the early stages of high blood pressure, but it is too late to pay attention when it occurs.

The guidelines point out: people without diagnosed hypertension should measure blood pressure at least once a year; if blood pressure does not meet the diagnostic criteria for hypertension, but blood pressure is high, 130-134/80-84mmHg, the frequency of blood pressure measurement should be increased, at least monthly once.

Therefore, for middle-aged and elderly people who have just completed stents, the elasticity of blood vessels is poor, and the blood pressure fluctuates greatly, especially when the seasons change. Even if hypertension is not diagnosed at this time, frequent monitoring is required.

After the frost falls, the temperature drops rapidly. Everyone remember to add clothes in time to keep your mood stable and comfortable. Once you have chest tightness, chest pain and other discomfort, you should seek medical treatment in time. treat.
