Hypertension family therapy exist six errors

Most patients with hypertension to family therapy approach. Although this method convenient, but the actual course of treatment but there are many errors, we must pay attention.

Mistakes one: to self-to estimate the level of blood pressure. Severity of the symptoms of hypertensive patients with high or low blood pressure is directly proportional to a certain extent, some high blood pressure patients, but no symptoms; On the contrary, some patients only mildly elevated blood pressure, very obvious symptoms. This is on everyone's blood pressure increased tolerance of different, and sometimes dirty organ damage and blood pressure level is not necessarily completely equal. Therefore, based on self-to estimate the level of blood pressure is often wrong and can easily delay the treatment. The correct approach is to take the initiative to regular measurement of blood pressure, measured at least twice a week.

Mistakes two: one drop of blood pressure, immediately stopping. Patients in the use of antihypertensive drug treatment after a period of time, blood pressure fell to normal, that is, on its own withdrawal; results in not long after the blood pressure is elevated, but also to the use of drugs not only can not buck this treatment, and because blood pressure A larger fluctuations, will cause heart, brain, kidney serious complications such as cerebral hemorrhage.
The correct medication is a blood pressure medication after the decline in volume can be maintained and continue to medication, or in a doctor's guidance will be adjusted drugs, and should not be categorically withdrawal.

Mistakes three: using the traditional method of medication. Research shows that patients with hypertension the blood pressure in the early morning wake up after the changes the most, can rise within a few minutes 2 to 5 kPa, after noon, blood pressure will fall on its own. Such a result of changes in blood pressure in patients with easily in the morning and at night in a stroke. (Morning prone to cerebral hemorrhage, but the night is prone to cerebral ischemia.) Three times a day the traditional methods did not consider the medication in patients with blood pressure changes and just blindly consider lowering blood pressure, with the result that early morning blood pressure control is not satisfactory , And the regular afternoon and evening so that low blood pressure,
The new method of medication a day after the early morning wake up one of the medication. Can be effective in preventing the early morning wake up after the dramatic changes in blood pressure, blood pressure is more balanced, and therefore better results.

Mistakes four: too low too fast buck. Some patients with hypertension blood pressure drop in the hope that the sooner the better, this understanding is wrong. This is because blood pressure drop too quickly or too low will make patients feel dizzy, weak, can also be induced by cerebral thrombosis, and other serious consequences.

Mistakes five: not in accordance with specific circumstances, the blind pursuit of blood pressure to normal levels. 60-year-old more than the elderly, have different levels of atherosclerosis, for the more high blood pressure, to heart, brain, kidneys and other organs of the blood supply. If patients regardless of age and the specific situation and stubbornly buck to the requirements of "normal" level, it is bound to affect the organ's function, but the loss outweigh the gain. The correct approach is based on the patient's age, organ function, blood pressure will be reduced to an appropriate level, especially the elderly, lower blood pressure can not be excessive.

Misunderstanding of 6: simply rely on antihypertensive drugs, not to comprehensive treatment. Causes more high blood pressure, therefore, the treatment also need to take comprehensive measures, it will be impossible to achieve the desired therapeutic effect. In addition to the correct approach is to choose the appropriate drugs, we must pay attention to Laoyijiehe, catering to Shaoyan, appropriate to participate in cultural and sports activities, avoid emotional, and ensure adequate sleep, obesity should reduce body weight, and so on.
