Treatment of heart failure in children

Heart failure is a very serious disease for us, and it is also very harmful to the body. In our minds, many people think that heart failure will happen to the elderly, but they don’t know that such a disease can also occur in children. If a child suffers from heart failure, then parents will be very worried. So how should children with heart failure be treated?

Regarding the question of whether heart failure can be cured, everyone should know that when heart failure occurs, treatment methods can be used to help alleviate the condition, and you must pay attention to your living habits in life, because living habits are very important for patients with heart failure.

Heart failure, also known as "myocardial failure", refers to the inability of the heart to pump out a blood supply commensurate with venous return and body tissue metabolism. Various diseases often cause the myocardial contractility to weaken, thereby reducing the heart's blood output, which is insufficient to meet the body's needs, and thus produces a series of symptoms and signs. According to clinical symptoms, it can be divided into left heart, right heart and total heart failure. Left heart failure is the most common and most important. The vast majority of congestive heart failure begins with left heart failure. Right heart failure is often secondary to left ventricular failure and rarely occurs alone. The latter can be seen in pulmonary valve stenosis, atrial septal defect, etc.

A question that heart failure patients often ask clinically is: Can heart failure be cured? At present, once heart failure occurs, it is irreversible or curable, but we can delay the progression of the disease, alleviate symptoms, improve the patient's quality of life, and prolong the patient's life.

Heart failure is the terminal phenomenon of heart disease caused by various causes. It is worth noting that China is one of the countries with a high incidence of heart failure. my country has a huge "reserve army" of heart failure, especially the increasing number of obese children. This will be a potential risk of heart failure outbreak in my country in the future. It is urgent to deal with heart failure. Among them, there are many ways to prevent heart failure, and exercise is a very effective method. However, can heart failure patients exercise? What is the appropriate intensity of exercise?

For patients with clear symptoms of heart failure, excessive exercise is harmful because it increases the burden on the heart and aggravates the condition. Therefore, it is important to be moderate and not excessive or too strong.

The above introduces various treatments for heart failure in children. Don’t worry too much when your child suffers from heart failure.
