Uncle Li, who has suffered from coronary heart disease for many years, suddenly suffered from chest pain one morning, and then his complexion became pale with difficulty breathing. After the rescue and treatment in the hospital, Uncle Li was finally out of danger. Afterwards, he realized that he had a sudden acute myocardial infarction. The doctor repeatedly told Uncle Li to pay special attention to preventing thrombosis after myocardial infarction. This makes Uncle Li more confused. It turns out that the recurrence of myocardial infarction is more common, and the important reason for the recurrence of myocardial infarction is thrombosis. So how to prevent thrombosis after myocardial infarction?
Poor eating habits can increase the oxygen consumption of the human heart and easily induce myocardial infarction again, especially foods with high fat content, which can lead to increased blood lipids and thick blood. Patients after myocardial infarction should avoid overeating and should not eat irritating food. Nursing staff should pay special attention to the rationality of the patient’s diet, combine the actual situation of the patient to help the patient customize a special diet plan, reduce the patient’s fat intake on the basis of ensuring the patient intake of sufficient nutrients, and through health education Inform patients of the importance of healthy diet to prevent thrombosis and improve patient compliance.
In addition, some elderly patients will experience anxiety after hospitalization. Nursing staff should do a good job of psychological interventions for patients, increase the number of communication with patients, timely discover the causes of anxiety and depression in patients, and conduct effective guidance to improve patient compliance. .
Patients with myocardial infarction should avoid heavy physical labor, focus on recuperation, exercise properly, and avoid strenuous exercise. Overload exercise may cause plaque rupture, which in turn may induce myocardial infarction. Reducing overloaded physical activity is not the same as being completely inactive. Patients need to undergo some low-intensity rehabilitation training during hospitalization. Patients with myocardial infarction who can get out of bed can walk freely indoors or walk in the corridor with the help of medical staff.
In the preventive care process, the nursing staff should change the patient's bad living habits, such as constipation and forced defecation. Many patients suffer from cardiac arrest due to forceful holding of their breath. Patients with smoking and drinking habits should quit smoking and drinking. Smoking and drinking are usually also an important cause of coronary heart disease. Quitting smoking and drinking as soon as possible can reduce the probability of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Patients can also prevent blood clots by taking drugs. Up to now, there are two main methods of antithrombotic therapy. One is antiplatelet drugs, which are mostly used in the prevention of thrombosis. Taking this drug can effectively prevent the formation of coronary artery thrombosis and cerebrovascular thrombosis. . Another kind of medicine mainly targets thrombin to prevent thrombosis. For example, common warfarin and aspirin belong to the category of this kind of medicine. Drugs suitable for patients to take for a long time include unfractionated heparin, low molecular weight heparin and clopidogrel anti-platelet aggregation drugs. In the process of medication, doctors can choose the most suitable medication for the patient from the perspective of pharmacoeconomics. Studies have shown that the probability of recurrence of myocardial infarction is greatly reduced in patients who take drugs to prevent them. Therefore, during the patient's hospitalization, doctors should prevent thrombosis through medication and care.
All in all, after the occurrence of myocardial infarction, patients should pay special attention to the prevention of thrombosis, only in this way can the recurrence of myocardial infarction be avoided. Therefore, medical staff should usually provide comprehensive and thoughtful care to inpatients, starting from the three aspects of diet, medication and life, and strengthen the prevention and care of patients with thrombosis, so that elderly patients can receive adequate care.
