What are the signs of coronary heart disease

What is coronary heart disease:

Coronary heart disease is an organic by the coronary arteries (atherosclerosis or power vasospasm) stenosis or occlusion caused by myocardial ischemia and hypoxia (angina) or myocardial necrosis (infarction) of heart disease, also known as ischemia heart disease.

?? We usually say that the majority of coronary arterial stenosis or obstruction caused by organic, also known as coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. Of coronary stenosis mostly the fatty substance-induced accumulation along the blood vessel wall, a process called atherosclerosis. To a certain extent the development of atherosclerosis, coronary artery stenosis gradually increased, limiting blood flow into the heart muscle. Heart is not getting enough oxygen supply, chest discomfort occurs, namely angina.

?? Different people angina were mixed. Most people describe it as "chest pressure", "sense of Fullness" "tightness", some patients feel the bilateral shoulder, back, neck, throat relief, rest or sublingual nitroglycerin ease.

First, what is the key to control of coronary heart disease

Critical control of coronary heart disease is prevention. Although coronary heart disease is a common disease in the elderly, but its pathological basis of atherosclerosis in children but originating period, which during decades provided an invaluable opportunity for prevention. Primary prevention, prevent the occurrence of coronary atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease eradication in the bud; secondary prevention, improve the early detection rate of the whole community of coronary heart disease, intensive treatment, prevent disease development and to seek its reversal; tertiary prevention, timely control of complications and improve the quality of life of patients, prolong life.

Primary prevention of coronary heart disease, the risk factors for intervention. Prevention of coronary heart disease can be two kinds of prevention strategies for the whole population and high-risk groups. The former is achieved by changing a group of people, region or country life activities and coronary risk factors related to diet, social structure and economic factors, in order to reduce the mean population risk factors; the latter is for more than one or one having a recognized (such as hypertension, smoking, etc.) and coronary heart disease have a clear causal relationship between reduced levels of risk factors, in order to effectively reduce the incidence of coronary heart disease. Currently accepted coronary heart disease risk factors include male, 40 years of age in the elderly, there is a family history of premature coronary heart disease, smoking (current smoking> 10 / day), high blood pressure, high cholesterol, severe obesity (overweight> 30 %), with clear past history of cerebral vascular or peripheral vascular occlusion. Among them, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and smoking are considered the three main coronary heart disease risk factors. In addition to gender, age and family history, other risk factors can prevent and treat.

Coronary heart disease children start to form atherosclerotic lesions is a long process, therefore, must be small to develop good habits, healthy lifestyle. To a reasonable diet, avoid excessive intake of fat and a lot of sweets, increasing physical activity, prevention of obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and diabetes. Overweight and obese people should take the initiative to reduce calorie intake, and strengthening exercise. Hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes, in addition to pay attention to risk factors intervention, but also to actively control the blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipids. Vigorously promote smoking cessation activities, especially for children to prevent a new generation of smokers.
