The temperature dropped sharply in the past two days. For many elderly people, low temperature is very dangerous.
Also because of this, cheats became popular and broadcast rumors in the circle of friends. Liars spread unreliable information disguised as scientific suggestions. Health headlines expressed great indignation at this.
The one with the widest spread and the worst influence is this:
We specially invited specialists from the Department of Cardiology in Anzhen Hospital, Beijing, to refute the rumor.
Cardiology-Even Major Is Wrong
Cardiologists seldom call themselves [cardiologists], and it is unreliable to just call themselves [cardiologists]. If this method is followed, it is likely to cause casualties, so there is no way to save lives.
Cardiology is a very professional field. Sometimes, even doctors in other departments may not be able to distinguish the authenticity of cardiology knowledge.
A reliable cardiologist only emphasizes prevention and treatment, and will not tell you that forwarding can save a life. Spreading wrong information for marketing purposes is harmful to people. I hope all readers have the ability to distinguish, and don’t let wrong information fill the circle of friends.
Danshen Dropping Pills-Wrong!
The curative effect of Danshen Dropping Pills on myocardial ischemia has not been clinically proved.
Nitroglycerin Tablets-Be Careful
Although nitroglycerin is effective for coronary heart disease, it cannot be used by friends with hypotension, or friends who already have severe myocardial infarction or even shock symptoms. The reason is that nitroglycerin can further aggravate hypotension and may even be fatal.
Aspirin Tablets-Not All Right
Aspirin plays an important role in preventing platelet aggregation and inhibiting thrombosis. If chest pain is caused by coronary heart disease, aspirin is effective. However, severe chest pain is not necessarily caused by coronary heart disease, but may also be caused by aortic dissection.
The average person will not judge, at this time, taking anticoagulant aspirin is taboo! It will increase bleeding and cause worse effects.
Sit down and don’t lie down-wrong!
In terms of body position, We recommend lying flat, However, when some patients have chest pain, they are actually suffering from myocardial infarction and heart failure. Encountered such a situation, they cannot lie down, because they will feel out of breath. If so, it is recommended to make themselves as comfortable as possible. That is to say, it is recommended to lie down, but feel difficult to breathe after lying down, and can lean on the sofa and so on.
Lie down can reduce energy consumption, reduce myocardial oxygen consumption and slow down the progress of myocardial ischemia.
Holding your seat hard may increase the risk.
Contact the emergency center immediately.-Yes
Of all this information, only this one is right!
If there are elderly people living alone in the family, they should be prepared at ordinary times to let the elderly bring their mobile phones with them at any time and charge them with electricity so that they can call 120 first in case of emergency.
If we are facing such a situation, what we have to do is to open the door of the room, set aside the passage, don’t panic, lie down and wait for rescue.
