summary

Myocardial infarction is a relatively easy disease for the elderly. The elderly with myocardial infarction will have angina pectoris, shortness of breath, chest tightness and other symptoms. Now I will share with you how to do with myocardial infarction in the elderly.

How does old people myocardial infarction do

First, the treatment of prodromal symptoms. The appearance of prodromal symptoms may be the manifestation of myocardial infarction. It is suggested that patients should be hospitalized and treated according to the measures of unstable angina pectoris timely and actively, which can reduce the chance of MI in these patients.

Second, before admission, about 2 / 3 of AMI patients died outside the hospital, and usually died of ventricular fibrillation. Therefore, it is of great significance to shorten the period from onset to hospitalization and to carry out active treatment during this period to save the lives of these patients. For patients with serious illness, they should be rescued on the spot after the onset of the disease, and transferred to the hospital for further treatment only when the patient's condition is stable.

Third, antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy has been confirmed that thrombosis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AMI, so antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy should be applied in the early stage of AMI. The primary purpose of this treatment is to establish and maintain the patency of the infarct related artery. The second purpose is to reduce the tendency of thrombosis in patients, so as to reduce the possibility of mural thrombosis and deep vein thrombosis. The efficacy of antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy is partly manifested in reducing the mortality of AMI patients.
