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.)
