Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. How should I treat angina, heart failure, and arrhythmia?Doctor's answer:
Once diagnosed, treatment should be administered according to standards.1. Initial treatment involves oxygen therapy via mask or nasal cannula, with medications such as morphine, diuretics, and inotropic agents administered intravenously.
2. If the condition does not improve, vasoactive drugs should be selected based on systolic blood pressure and pulmonary congestion, such as positive inotropic agents, vasodilators, and vasopressors.
3. In severe cases with persistent hypotension (a decrease of 30%), treatment is considered effective, indicating a favorable prognosis.
5. Control and eliminate various triggers, and promptly correct underlying cardiovascular diseases.
