Insufficiency of blood supply to the heart and brain

Introduction The cause of insufficient blood supply to the heart and brain is caused by cerebral arteriosclerosis. The lack of blood supply to the heart and brain can easily lead to the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease and stroke. Therefore, the lack of blood supply to the heart and brain is very harmful. When it is discovered, it should be treated promptly. Therapeutic methods can be broadly divided into symptomatic treatments that directly improve the insufficiency of heart and brain and energy metabolism, and the etiology of preventing the progression of arteriosclerosis and eliminating the occlusion of stenotic vessels. Among them, improving blood supply to the heart and brain should properly control blood pressure, rationally select various vasodilators, improve microcirculation and red blood cells, platelet aggregation drugs, and drugs that promote brain nutrition and energy metabolism.

Cause

The main cause of cerebral insufficiency is cerebral arteriosclerosis. Long-term chronic ischemia of the brain can lead to brain atrophy, white matter lesions, mental retardation and multiple systemic damage symptoms. The main reason for the lack of blood supply to the heart is due to the dislocation of the atlantoaxial joint of the cervical vertebrae and the neck and neck of the neck. The vertebral artery is stimulated to cause stenosis or vasospasm of the arterial stenosis. The blood flow through it is reduced, and the brain is supplied by insufficient blood supply to the brain. Insufficient blood supply in the district.
