What caused the old man to faint?
Old people often faint, and there are many reasons for fainting, which can probably be seen from multiple levels. Cardiogenic syncope is common in the elderly with myocardial infarction or myocardial infarction. If fatigue, excessive excitement, excessive drinking, overwork and obvious fitness exercise occur, due to obvious hypoxia in the cardiovascular system, coronary artery blood supply can be insufficient and syncope can be caused. Syncope is more likely to occur during myocardial infarction or myocardial infarction. Brain diseases lead to syncope, which is common in the elderly over 60 years old. Due to cerebral arteriosclerosis or lipid sinking into the intima of capillaries, the friction of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases increases, and red blood cells adhere to the lumen of capillaries, so the blood consistency increases, the lumen narrows, and the cerebral blood volume decreases, and syncope will occur.
In this case, if the elderly are overworked or suddenly turn their heads, it is likely to cause syncope. Orthostatic hypotension leads to syncope, often because the elderly take too many antihypertensive drugs or often stay in bed. When they suddenly stand up or stand up, there will be a temporary lack of blood supply to the brain, which will lead to dizziness, dizziness, pallor and so on. In more serious cases, there will be syncope. Syncope caused by urination can also occur when you get up to urinate or just urinate, mostly in elderly men, mostly at night, in the morning and when you wake up from a nap. I was cold and tired after drinking. A dry cough can lead to syncope, which is very common in patients with acute bronchitis or COVID-19 who smoke. After a strong dry cough, they immediately lost consciousness.
How should the elderly often faint to prevent it?
At the dietary level, patients should eat more light food and less high-fat and high-salt ingredients. Optimism and happiness are also important. Ensure adequate sleep and try to rest in a quiet environment without noise. Ensure fresh indoor air circulation, frequent indoor ventilation, less congestion and prevent dizziness. There is no need to be overly anxious in work and daily life, but it can moderately relieve mental stress, divert attention and relieve dizziness.
