About Intra-Aortic Balloon Counterpulsation
Intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that has revolutionized the field of cardiology. It involves the deployment of a balloon catheter in the aortic arch to counteract the abnormal heart rhythm caused by a myarrhythmia. This treatment method can significantly improve the patient's quality of life while reducing the risks of surgery. In recent years, with the continuous development of technology, intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation has been widely used around the world and has become a treatment method that has attracted much attention.
Major Symptoms of Intra-Aortic Balloon Counterpulsation
Intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) is an interventional procedure that increases the heart's blood output by placing a temporary catheter in the aorta. However, this treatment may cause some symptoms. The main symptoms include:
1. Short-term reactions: IABP may cause patients to experience temporary hypertension during treatment, especially within minutes to hours after the start of treatment. This is usually temporary and requires no special treatment.
2. Long-term reactions: Long-term use of IABP may cause renal function damage in patients, especially when urea nitrogen levels increase. In addition, IABP may also cause serious complications such as heart failure, arrhythmia, and neurological complications in patients.
3. Catheter-related complications: IABP catheters may cause complications such as air embolism, embolism, and vascular injury.
4. Psychological problems: IABP treatment may have negative psychological effects on patients, including anxiety, depression, and panic.
5. Treatment-related complications: IABP treatment may be associated with surgery-related complications, including bleeding and infection.
6. Drug withdrawal reactions: After withdrawing IABP treatment, patients may experience drug withdrawal reactions, such as symptomatic hematuria and red blood cell urine.
Suitable Lifestyle for People with Intra-Aortic Balloon Counterpulsation
An appropriate lifestyle approach for patients with Intra-aortic Balloon Counterpulsation includes the following:
1. Follow your doctor's recommendations and treatment plan. During the treatment process, patients need to follow the doctor's medication instructions and carry out treatment according to the doctor's recommendations.
2. Maintain good living habits. Patients need to ensure adequate sleep, avoid overexertion, and maintain good eating habits, eating more vegetables, fruits and high-quality protein.
3. Exercise in moderation. Proper exercise can improve the body's immunity and help recover from diseases. However, patients should avoid strenuous exercise to avoid affecting the treatment effect.
4. Stay in a good mood. Patients need to learn to adjust their mentality to avoid excessive anxiety and depression, which is conducive to recovery.
5. Follow up regularly. Patients should return to the hospital regularly to receive examination and guidance from doctors to ensure the effectiveness of treatment. In conclusion, for patients suffering from Intra-aortic Balloon Counterpulsation, lifestyle adjustments are crucial to disease recovery. Patients should actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, follow the doctor's advice, and strive to improve their living habits and promote recovery.
