By caring for the heart, how to
be vigilant to avoid heart
disease ?
• Keep all medical documents within reach -
People with a weak heart need to
be very careful in this case, and once they have already had a heart attack,
their heart's ability to pump blood is reduced. This type of patient may have
trouble breathing. For this reason, even if someone suffers from respiratory
problems due to heart problems, there is a risk of suspecting him as a corona
patient. That is why it is very important to keep all medical documents in the
hands of the heart patient. If you have to go to the hospital for any reason,
the emergency physician will be able to make the right decision knowing the
patient's medical history. Physicians should also think about shortness of
breath, not just corona, but other problems.
• 'Medicine will not stop' - to do
Dr. Babu has mentioned in the prescription of the medicine that 'the medicine will not stop', which means you have to take the medicine as long as you are alive. In addition to heart problems, many people also have problems with sugar and blood pressure. Some patients with high blood pressure take ramipril (ACE inhibitor) or similar. Such drugs increase the risk of Novel Corona infection. Some tests have shown that it is better to stop taking this type of medication during coronary artery disease. In that case it is necessary to use alternatives such as calcium channel blockers as advised by the doctor. Especially in the case of high blood pressure, diabetes patients, medicine is a daily companion, not a day goes by without medicine, therefore all these life-giving medicines are not always available during corona hyperthermia. Therefore consult a physician in telemedicine before choosing an alternative medicine. Drugs such as ibuprofen and diclofenac also increase the risk of covid infections. Some painkillers also contain ibuprofen. In that case also caution is recommended. However, you will take statin medicine, cholesterol control medicine, blood fluid medicine, heart failure medicine as you were taking. However, ECG should be taken to see if there is a problem with QT interval or bradycardia, rhythmic fall, then drugs like hydroxychloroquine can be applied.
• If the heart patient has problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, lung and kidney disease, he should be kept under double surveillance.
• Special care should be taken for older people, especially those in their fifties, not to come into direct contact with people with coronary heart disease, especially if they have heart disease.
• Heart patients can leave sorbitrate at home. If you feel severe pain in the chest, place 5 mg tablets under the tongue.
• Many people needed heart surgery in this difficult environment, in their case it seems better to postpone the operation for a few days after taking medicine in consultation with the doctor. However, if the problem is complicated, you have to follow the doctor's advice.
When to take the patient to the hospital:
• When it is understood that the patient is becoming unconscious, shortness of breath has started, the body is overwhelmed with severe fatigue and does not understand what you are doing, where you are, chest pain, heart palpitations, chest tightness, heart block or There was a problem with the attack. In that case the patient should be taken to the hospital as secretly as possible.
• Chest pain is often seen after a short walk, the problem seems to be out of control, they should contact the doctor. This is because if you avoid the problem for fear of corona, you will have to face many problems to get to the hospital if you have severe chest pain later, and if there is any negligence or delay in treatment, it can be a terrible danger to the patient.
What to do to keep the patient healthy:
• Keep in touch with the doctor on regular phone or telemedicine.
• Take light walks in the room. You can eat fruits rich in vitamin C. Vitamin C will boost your body's immune system which will help prevent disease.
• '' The sky taught me to be generous brother .... '' Come closer to nature, open the window and look at the horizon, the fatigue of the mind will go away. Make friends with the child members of the family, chat. If possible, listen to the songs of the old days - Rabindra Sangeet, Mann De, Hemant whatever you like, spend the day in a very nostalgic mood. Keep a good mood. Do not panic unnecessarily. Believe in yourself, always think positive, and make others positive.
