How long can myocardial infarction recover?

summary

Myocardial infarction is a common disease in middle-aged and elderly people. The main cause of acute myocardial infarction is cardiac ischemia and hypoxia, which leads to cardiac muscle necrosis. Once cardiac muscle necrosis occurs, it will not grow new muscle again. Therefore, the necrotic part of myocardial infarction can not be recovered, but patients can get close to healthy state through treatment, If the scope of myocardial necrosis is not very large, daily activities can be carried out properly. However, if the scope of myocardial necrosis is relatively large, daily activities can not be carried out, and usually the mood can not be too excited, which may lead to myocardial infarction. So what is the cause of myocardial ischemia and hypoxia? Let me give you a detailed explanation.

How long can myocardial infarction recover?

First, the coronary artery is responsible for supplying blood and oxygen to the heart. Heart ischemia and hypoxia is due to the blockage of the coronary artery. This symptom is called coronary arteriosclerosis. The reason why this disease occurs in the elderly is that the young people's blood vessels have good elasticity and there are not many impurities on the surface of the blood vessel wall.

Second: but the elderly are different. Due to the long-term high-fat diet, smoking and drinking, most of the elderly suffer from hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and other diseases. At the same time, the vascular elasticity of the elderly is not very good, which will lead to coronary atherosclerosis over time. This leads to myocardial infarction.

Third: if you cooperate with the doctor's treatment, at the same time of using drugs and surgical treatment, myocardial infarction can be controlled about a week after the operation. The operation is to put a stent in the blocked blood vessel, so that the blood can flow, and the muscle of the heart will not be hypoxic-ischemic.

matters needing attention

In the use of vasodilators, they should be taken in strict accordance with the dose given by the doctor and should not be missed. If missed, they should not be taken by themselves. In the process of using vasodilators, blood pressure should be closely observed to prevent hypotension.
