Myocardial infarction is a severe and urgent medical condition. When myocardial infarction occurs, it is imperative to call emergency services (dial 120) and transport the patient to the emergency department of a standard hospital for urgent medical treatment. If acute myocardial infarction is not effectively treated, it can lead to serious complications and, in severe cases, death. Therefore, rescue treatment must be carried out. After routine examinations in a standard hospital, effective measures should be taken to alleviate the patient's pain and save their life. During the recovery phase of acute myocardial infarction, it is standard to adjust medications at the department of cardiology, using drugs that activate blood circulation, remove blood stasis, dilate coronary arteries, nourish the myocardium, improve myocardial blood supply, and prevent the recurrence of myocardial infarction. (This answer is for reference only. Please seek guidance from a professional physician before using any medication, and do not self-medicate.)

Can someone with myocardial infarction eat watermelon?

Patients with myocardial infarction can eat watermelon. Watermelon is a fruit, which contains a wealth of nutrients, including plant proteins, as well as notable amounts of glucose, sucrose, vitamins, dietary fiber, and minerals, essential for replenishing the human body's nutritional needs and hydration. Patients with myocardial infarction, if they do not have diabetes, may eat watermelon in moderation. However, they should not consume too much to avoid causing gastrointestinal discomfort and consequent distress. In daily life, patients should maintain a light diet and avoid fatty and spicy foods.

Symptoms of myocardial infarction with coma

Myocardial infarction is a serious disease that poses a severe threat to human life and health. The basis of its onset is myocardial ischemia, mainly due to coronary artery infarction. It generally manifests as severe pain in the precordial area, and some may experience gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, eventually leading to overall weakness, fainting, and coma. Patients may exhibit symptoms of cerebral ischemia, such as dizziness, disturbed consciousness, and confusion. Some may experience diffuse cerebral ischemia. After a myocardial infarction occurs, it is crucial to provide immediate rescue to save the patient's life.

How is myocardial infarction treated?

Myocardial infarction is a relatively common critical illness in our daily lives. Many patients often delay their condition severely due to untimely treatment, which becomes an important cause of disability and death. So how should myocardial infarction be treated? It should be treated from the following two aspects: First, acute myocardial infarction. For acute myocardial infarction, it is necessary to promptly open the occluded blood vessels, restore cardiac perfusion, and save viable myocardium. This can be achieved through emergency interventional treatment or thrombolytic therapy. Second, old myocardial infarction. At this time, treatment mainly involves taking oral aspirin and statins to stabilize the disease and prevent the condition from worsening or deteriorating. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a professional doctor.)

Is myocardial infarction dangerous?

Myocardial infarction is a very dangerous heart disease. If it occurs and is not treated effectively, serious complications can arise, including cardiogenic shock, mental disorders, and heart failure, which can lead to death in severe cases. Therefore, effective medication must be used for emergency treatment when myocardial infarction occurs. In daily life, to prevent the occurrence of myocardial infarction, one should first control blood pressure, adopt a low-sugar diet, reduce arteriosclerosis, and minimize damage to the coronary arteries to effectively avoid the occurrence of myocardial infarction.
