PREVENTION OF HYPERTENSIVE HEART DISEASE


There is no confusion that its much more better to lead a healthy lifestyle than undergoing  medical complication.
Some of possible Lifestyle modification can be like the below one.otherwise you may have to go under lots of complication. 


# keep in mind The problems related to heart disease
# also knowrisk of high blood pressure



PREVENTION OF HYPERTENSIVE HEART DISEASES 


It's  prevention includes two process

     1. Controlling HIGH BP
     2.LIFESTYLE CHANGES


●Healthy diet
● promotion of weight loss 
●regular exercise
●Avoid alcohol intake 
●just learn to hate smoking.
●Drug treatment may also be needed to control the hypertension and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease .
●Patients with hypertensive heart disease should avoid taking over the counter non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or cough suppressants, and decongestants containing sympathomimetics, unless otherwise advised by their physician as these can exacerbate hypertension and heart failure.

TREATMENT OF HEART FAILURE

MEDICAL TREATMENT OF HEART FAILURE: 



At sudden chest pain patients must be hospitalised immediately. 
+ patients may be a ked to chew  325mg aspirin slowly as an emergency response, if there is no history of aspirin allergy or bleeding.
+ at hospital  focuses will examine the actual reason behind severe chest pain.The process may  include-
         ● ECHOCARDIOGRAM (ECG)
         ●CORONARY ENGIOGRAPHY
         ●STROKE TEST
         ●Many lab tests to know KIDNEY FUNCTION
         ●Checking out medical history 
          ●Examining body elements proper balance. 

After diagnosis patients must undergo adequate treatments considering patients' condition. But must obey your doctors' guideline.Modern medical science has progressed more on heart disease.

Know the Symptoms of heart attack



It must be said clearly that high blood pressure  rarely shows any symptoms.Hence it harms behind you and when it goes on severe condition affecting your organs it's called HYPERTENSIVE HEART DISEASE.One of these is heart attack which happens when your heart fully disconnected from necessary blood supply due to blockage . It shows some symptoms when  you must go for medical treatment. In some case patients should be immediately hospitalised.

SYMPTOMS OF HEART FAILURE :



~chest pain (named as angina)
~Tightness or pressure in the chest  
know the symptoms of heart attack

~ Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
~Fatigue or too much tiredness or weakness 
~Pain on neck, back or in arms and shoulder
sweating 
~irregular rhythm of heart beating or sudden excess heart beating. 
~nausea or vomiting, dizziness

RISK OF HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

RISK OF HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE :



One must know about this as your high BP symptoms are revealed after damage..so high BP patients should be taken extra care. .
●artery
 narrowing and damage to arterial wall
●HEART :
   ○heart attack
   ○heart failure( know symptoms and treatment)
   ○coronary arterial blockage 
   ○irrelevant heart rhythm
   ○heart wall thickening 
●KIDNEY : kidney failure  (for kidney arterial blockage )
●EYE: 
    ○eye blood vessel damage 
    ○fluid build up under retina
    ○eye nerve (optic nerve) damage

●BRAIN:


    ○stroke (for reduction of blood supply and die cells)
    ○ Dementia( is a brain disease resulting in problems with thinking, speaking, reasoning, memory, vision and movement.)   
●bone loss (some time)
●Trouble sleeping 
Know about the risk factors of heart diseases

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

High blood pressure 

High blood pressure is the most severe mortality factor of today's world.A single high blood pressure can be the reason of many life threatening diseases.lt harms not only heart and arteries but also eye kidney and peripheral organs (e.g legs ,arms )

# KNOW The risk of high blood pressure


HOW HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE HARMS YOU? 



➕HIGH blood pressure helps narrowing your artery with fatty bodies (named plaques ).thus causes artery blockage (in medical science ATHEROSCLEROSIS)
   ➕  If this blockage happens with heart it's named CORONARY HEART DISEASE. ...IF ts with your brain it's called STROKE. .When it's with your arms or legs it's PERIPHERAL HEART DISEASE 
➕ With high blood pressure and artery blockage your heart needs to work more to supply enough blood to body..continuous hard work makes the heart wall thick.it lessens the heart power and leads to many more relevant diseases. .

RISK FACTORS OF HEART DISEASES

These following  factors at  the same time take the  top ranking  in major death factors.that mean heart diseases  have gained  the top  death cause among people  of  the  world. 

REASONS ARE : 
■age  (the most important  factor. .It has been reported that 82% die of heart diseases  are aged 65 or more. the risk of stroke doubles every decade after age 55.)
■gender  (men are at greater risk than  women )
■high blood pressure
 ■hyperlipidemia
■tobacco smoking
■excessive alcohol consumption
■obesity, 
■lack of physical activity,
■family history
■diabetes mellitus, 
,■processed meat consumption, 
■ sugar consumption
■psychosocial factors,
■air pollution

PROBLEMS OF HEART DISEASES /CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE

Heart disease (also known as cardiovascular  disease)  involves diseases  related to  the heart, the blood vessels (arteries,capillaries, and veins) or both. It  affects the cardiovascular system, principally cardiac disease, vascular diseases of the brain and kidney, and peripheral arterial disease(affects peripheral organs e.g legs)

PROBLEMS OF HEART DISEASES :


●Coronary (used for something related to heart)artery disease ,also known as coronary heart disease and ischemic heart disease
📍diseases of cardiac muscle-Cardiomyopathy 
📍diseases of the heart due to high blood pressure- Hypertensive heart disease
📍Heart failure
📍  failure at the right side of the heart involving respiratory system- Pulmonary heart disease
📍  abnormalities of heart rhythm- Cardiac dysrhythmias
📍Inflammatory heart  disease
📍inflammation of the inner layer of the heart, the endocardium. The structures most commonly involved are the heart valves- Endocarditis 
📍Inflammatory cardiomegalyMyocarditis – inflammation of themyocardium, the muscular part of the heart.
Valvular heart disease
📍Cerebrovascular disease – disease of blood vessels that supply blood to the brain such as stroke
📍Peripheral arterial disease – disease of blood vessels that supply blood to the arms and legs
📍Congenital heart disease – heart structure malformations existing at birth
📍Rheumatic heart disease – heart muscles and valves damage due to rheumatic fever caused by Streptococcus pathogenes a group A streptococcal infection.

      Cardiovascular disease involves large types of severe diseases. .So no alternative to prevention.

HEART LOCATION
The heart is a mascular organ  located at the slight left centre of the chest.  In simple biology, it  is located in the middle compartment  mediastinum in the chest.in detail, the heart is  
 situated in the middle of the mediastinum behind the breastbone(sternum) in the chest, at the level of thoracic vertebrae T5-T8. The largest part of the heart is usually slightly offset to the left .The left offset part is upper portion (base)
And right offset portion  is the lower part (apex).


HEART FUNCTION 
The heart function is an important factor  in humans and other animals, which pumps bloodthrough the blood vessels of thecirculatory system. The blood provides the body with oxygen and nutrients, as well as removing metabolic wastes. The heart  function  involves blood flow; myocardium structure; the electrical conduction system of the heart; the cardiac cycle and cardiac output.
