Strong exercise after fatigue is more likely to cause myocardial infarction
Exercise, fitness, these words that seem to make people feel very “healthy”, how can they be associated with such a dangerous situation as “myocardial infarction”?
Department of Cardiology from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine told us that it is not that “exercise” is bad, but that strenuous exercise under the condition of long-term fatigue is more likely to cause Accident.
“Before the Chinese New Year, we received a 30-year-old male patient who suddenly collapsed after exercising and was rushed to the hospital by a friend. After examination, it was found to be acute myocardial infarction. Fortunately, it was carried out immediately. Emergency interventional surgery, rescue came back.” said Deputy Chief Physician Xuan Tianming of Cardiology Department. After asking about his medical history, he found that the man was usually very busy with work, often traveling and socializing, with irregular work and rest, and an unhealthy diet. He also knew that this was not good for his health, so he applied for a fitness card at a gym near his home, and that time was on a business trip. After I came back, I went to the gym to run and “lift iron”, but an accident happened.
Xuan Tianming, deputy chief physician, said that acute myocardial infarction generally occurs on the basis of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis refers to the accumulation of lipids, fibrous tissue proliferation and calcium deposition on the intima of blood vessels, thereby forming plaques and causing vascular stenosis and hardening. When a certain incentive causes the plaque to rupture, platelets will aggregate in large quantities. A thrombus forms on the surface of the ruptured site, blocking the blood vessel and causing accidents such as myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction.
At present, the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis is unknown, but it can be clearly associated with hyperlipidemia, hypertension, eatingunhealthy diet, irregular work and rest, staying up late , stress, sedentary, obesity, etc. are closely related. Modern young people often have these “common diseases”, many of which are high-risk groups of atherosclerosis. Once plaques are formed, if they are stimulated by the outside world, such as strenuous exercise, tension, cold stimulation, etc., the plaques are prone to rupture, thus Accidents such as heart attack.
“Exercise in moderation is definitely a good thing, and exercise itself is beneficial to relieve stress, enhance physical fitness, and prevent atherosclerosis. It should be alert that there is atherosclerosis For the basic population, sudden and violent exercise on a whim is often easy to cause accidents. Exercise must be moderate and appropriate, especially if you have been staying up late or feel extremely fatigued, do not engage in vigorous exercise.” Xuan Tianming, deputy chief physician, said.
30- to 50-year-olds have become the mainstay of myocardial infarction
“Different from the common belief that cardiovascular disease is the patent of the elderly, today MI is almost a ‘youth disease’, from our clinical admissions Judging from the reported cases, people aged 30 to 50 have become the ‘main force’ of acute myocardial infarction.” ZhejiangGuo Xiaogang, director of the Cardiology Department of the First Hospital, said. The elderly will pay special attention to cardiovascular problems and will pay attention to them at any time. If they feel uncomfortable, they may seek medical treatment in time. On the contrary, young people feel that cardiovascular disease is far away from them, and they feel that they are still young and will not suffer from myocardial infarction. In the event of an accident, if you are a little uncomfortable, you will choose to “carry it over”.
These young myocardial infarction patients almost all have the same labels: high work pressure, poor emotional regulation, staying up late, sedentary, inactivity, overeating or eating irregularly, and Some had a clear history of smoking and drinking.
Experts say that although strenuous exercise and mood swings can easily induce myocardial infarction, long-term unhealthy lifestyle is the “culprit”. Therefore, the best way to deal with “myocardial infarction” is to prevent it: strictly control cardiovascular risk factors such as blood pressure, blood lipids, blood sugar, uric acid, quit smoking and drinking, have a balanced diet, work and rest regularly, not stay up late, and properly Exercise and control your weight.
In addition, everyone should pay attention to physical examination. Atherosclerosis is a long-term disease development process. Generally, there are no obvious symptoms in the early stage, but blood tests can be carried out. Find the “three highs” problem, prevent atherosclerosis in time, and more importantly, if you usually experience chest tightness and chest pain after exercise, you should seek medical attention in time, and do coronary angiography if necessary Check to determine the cause.
In addition, experts should emphasize that there are generally some signs of myocardial infarction, and young people must not ignore these physical distress signals: If the sudden onset of a prolonged period of time Chest tightness or chest pain, especially when accompanied by symptoms such as sweating and shortness of breath, should be paid attention to and 120 should be called immediately. In addition, if symptoms such as left shoulder, left upper limb and back pain, transient disturbance of consciousness, and syncope symptoms occur, it is also necessary to seek medical attention in time to clarify the cardiac status.
What should we do in the event of an accident
In recent years, news of sudden death of young people has been on the hot search. Work pressure, mortgage pressure, and life pressure are like several mountains, often overwhelming young people. Come. But I often see the editor in the hospital who is separated from life and death. I want to say a word more. Life is the foundation of everything. Once there is a health problem, the rest can only be zero.
Sudden death can be divided into several categories such as cardiac, brain, and pulmonary. Sudden cardiac death is the main cause, and in sudden cardiac death, cardiac Infarction accounts for the vast majority, and other sudden cardiac death such as malignant arrhythmia is often related to myocardial infarction. We sometimes see people die suddenly in their sleep, usually with a malignant arrhythmia.
Experts suggest that the best way to treat a disease is “prevention.” But if an acute myocardial infarction does occur, the most important thing is to be “fast”! “We often say that a few minutes are golden, but it’s actually a time grab. In the event of a myocardial infarction, you should go to the doctor as soon as possible, and the blood vessels should be opened as soon as possible.” said Deputy Chief Physician Xuan Tianming. He especially wanted to emphasize that we must trust the professional judgment of the doctor and cooperate with the doctor’s diagnosis and treatment behavior. He has seen many patients who were sent for rescue due to myocardial infarction, but the effective treatment was delayed due to the lack of cooperation of himself or his family, and finally swallowed the bitter fruit.
“Because after myocardial infarction, part of the heart will have no blood supply, and myocardial cells will continue to die. Opening blood vessels in a short period of time can save more myocardial cells. Large-scale necrosis of the myocardium will lead to complications such as heart failure, ventricular fibrillation, and malignant arrhythmia, and the heart is the engine of the human body. the doctor said.
