"One of the patients with acute myocardial infarction, the patient was in shock, three degree atrioventricular block, the only access road leading to the broken heart, the heart may stop at any time, critical condition. Surgery as soon as possible ah!" This two-day snow, Sioux City hospital major cardiac medical doctor were unusually busy, has been linked to several evening, Su big heart of a hospital medical expert Professor Yang to the military have been such emergency telephone the hospital. Myocardial infarction patients treated during the day is a lot higher than usual. Lumianjibing at the same time because of rain, snow, fall falls fractures are also quite a number of people. So two major centres of several major hospitals every day Suzhou treated fractures, trauma patients at least 20 cases, than usual turned several times.
Particularly vulnerable heart, "Boling"

The day before yesterday morning at home cleaning Auntie Lee, suddenly feeling headaches vertigo, see things clearly do not raise hands, especially breathing difficulties, immediately take their own standby electronic sphygmomanometer a much higher than usual blood pressure measurement, people have gradually halo between, and began to feel nausea and vomiting, the body is unable to hold the circumstances, in Auntie Lee, accompanied by his wife rushed to the hospital, doctors results as a measurement of blood pressure 190/95 mmHg. According to emergency room doctors, in not a few minutes before Auntie Lee also sent a 120 hypertensive patients, but only 45-year-old age.

Winter season, especially when the heat shock climate variability, heart disease emergencies than mild climate season 2-3 times higher. Sioux City is linked to several days of heavy snow, the temperature Sphygmomanometer suddenly dropped to below zero degrees Celsius, and this myocardial infarction patients suddenly many more. So the heart of a hospital medical experts to Yang Jun said that the two days of myocardial infarction patients treated every day there are at least 34 cases, it is because the cold will stimulate increased blood pressure, heart rate accelerated, increasing myocardial oxygen consumption induced by coronary heart disease ; also enable cold blood viscosity increased emboli in the blood to the formation of a myocardial infarction. Therefore, Professor Yang recommendations to the Army over 40 years of age, family history of coronary heart disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia who should pay close attention to weather changes brought about by the small changes in the body, and under the guidance of a doctor's medication, and maintain condition stability.

Have hypertension, a history of coronary artery disease patients in the winter should pay attention to the following points, as a preventive measure:

(1) not from the warm room suddenly out outdoors, especially windy rain, snow, cold weather, because temperature-induced heart attack too. If we must go, it's best to aisle through the corridors or to go out to middle of a "buffer zone temperature", or pre-adaptation to go out again.

(2) going to wear face masks, hats, scarves, wear enough clothes, pay attention to the limbs warm. This not only can reduce heart attack incident, but also the prevention of influenza and upper respiratory tract infection. Because of lower respiratory tract infection caused heart disease is also induced by increasing the most common causes of heart failure.

(3) Do not go out immediately after a meal. Because more blood flow after a meal Sphygmomanometer gastrointestinal tract, blood supply to the heart itself relative reduction, coupled with a large number of gastrointestinal absorption of nutrients, increased blood viscosity, affect blood flow, and easy-induced thrombosis caused acute coronary events. If the cold is worse.

(4) when they go out must carry emergency heart disease commonly used drugs, such as nitroglycerin tablets, aspirin, and so on, provide for the rainy day.
