Angina pectoris is a common cardiovascular disease in clinical cardiology and emergency departments, and patients usually present with symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, chest pain or dyspnea, which are mainly caused by insufficient blood supply to the coronary arteries. If you want to understand the best method of angina, you first need to understand what angina is.
In the clinical treatment of angina, the following ** methods are usually adopted:
1.Medications**: Depending on the patient's condition, medications such as nitroglycerin may be recommended to dilate the coronary arteries, increase blood flow, and relieve angina symptoms. In addition, other drugs may also be prescribed, such as receptor blockers, calcium channel blockers, etc., and traditional Chinese medicine such as Tongxinluo capsules can also be used to protect blood vessels, prevent vascular endothelial cells from being damaged due to hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia and other factors, and can also play a role in stabilizing or ablating atherosclerotic plaques that have been formed, and can prevent plaques from rupturing and forming thrombosis.
2.Angioplasty: For severe coronary artery stenosis, patients may need angioplasty (also known as catheter intervention). This is a procedure in which an inflatable balloon is inserted through a catheter into the blockage and then the blood vessels are dilated to restore blood flow.
3.Bypass surgery: Bypass surgery may be needed when angioplasty does not improve coronary artery stenosis. In this procedure, doctors remove healthy blood vessels from other parts of the body that are used to bypass narrowed or blocked coronary arteries to restore blood flow.
4.Cardiac stenting: Cardiac stenting is an interventional procedure that dilates blood vessels by placing a metal stent in a narrowed area. This improves blood flow and reduces angina.
In addition to the ** method, there are also some measures that can be taken to prevent the occurrence of angina. For example, choose a diet low in cholesterol, low in saturated fat, and high in fiber, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats (such as fish oil).Maintaining a proper weight can help reduce the risk of coronary artery stenosis. Actively control blood sugar, blood pressure and blood lipids, reduce the risk of angina, etc.
