As society develops, people ‘ s standard of living is becoming better, followed by an annual increase in the incidence of various diseases, the most common chronic diseases, such as hypertension, coronary heart disease and so on, leading to an increase in the incidence of heart failure, which is the most common combination of heart failure. The latest epidemiological study found that nearly 70 per cent of heart failure patients combined coronary heart disease and 60 per cent combined with hypertension. Compared to the developed countries of Europe and the United States, our country, with a larger population base and a high number of heart failure patients, is increasing rapidly every year, increasing from over 9 million to over 12.5 million in the last five years and growing at 4.2 per cent per year. As a result, heart failure places a heavy burden on our health services, and patients suffering from heart failure are hospitalized repeatedly every year, for long periods of time and with poor treatment, placing a heavy financial burden on families and society. The prevention and treatment of heart failure is particularly important, and the focus of heart failure is not on treatment, but rather on prevention, pre-treatment and the strangulation of heart failure at the cradle, and certainly not on care that does not focus on heart failure. For patients already suffering from heart failure, we need active and regulated treatment, slowing progress in heart failure, improving the quality of life of patients with heart failure, prolonging the life cycle of patients with heart failure, and research has found that heart failure is only about 40 per cent for five years and is comparable to that of patients with malignant tumours, so that heart failure becomes “chronic tumours”, and we need to give sufficient attention to heart failure, from the understanding of heart failure, to early detection, prevention and early treatment, so that it can be reduced to a minimum.
The relationship between hypertension and heart failure, where heart failure is not a single disease, results in a change in the heart structure after a combination of diseases, which in turn leads to a decrease in heart function, a decrease in heart capacity to pump blood, and symptoms of heart failure. High blood pressure is a common clinical disease, and recent epidemiological studies have found that the incidence of hypertension among adults over the age of 18 has reached 32 per cent and that there are currently around 270 million cases of hypertension in the country. Controlling hypertension reduces the occurrence of heart failure, as high blood pressure endangers vital organs of our heart, kidneys, blood vessels, brain, etc., and especially the heart, as long-term hypertension can lead to increased heart pressure, structural changes in the heart, a thicker heart, and a heart failure when it exceeds its replacement function.
The relationship between coronary heart disease and heart failure is small, but there is a high flow of blood, which accounts for 5 per cent of the heart drain, thus ensuring the nutritional supply of the heart so that it can beat around the clock. When coronary porridge sclerosis causes a narrow coronary vein, coronary blood flow is limited, the blood flow provided to the heart is reduced and, in the long run, the heart’s “nourishment” is likely to occur. The impact on the heart function leads to a change in the heart structure, reduced heart constriction and reduced capacity to pump blood from the heart, which in turn leads to a further decline in coronal blood flow, enters a vicious circle and ultimately leads to heart failure. Therefore, we would like to focus on secondary prevention of coronary heart disease, in accordance with the “ABCDE” principle, A for ACEI, known as “xxply”, and for aspirin, where the anti-blood plate is condensed and nitric acid glycerine is concentrated, B-metolore, C-smoking, control of haemoglobin levels, D-control of blood sugar, proper diet, E-motion, control of blood pressure, learning and learning about coronary heart disease.
The current treatment for heart failure consists mainly of the “New Fours” drug and the “Five Gold Flowers” drug that has been in circulation for the last two years, so long as we focus on heart failure and are actively fighting it, the incidence of heart failure will decrease, and there will be a good ending for people with heart failure.
