Why is heart rate monitoring necessary for heart failure?

In clinical situations, cardiac function is mainly represented by cardiac output, and this variable has two determinants, heart rate and cardiac output. The increase or maintenance of cardiac output is determined by a change in one or both of these two variables.

In the case of reduced new functions, these mechanisms are activated through some neural and humoral pathways to maintain adequate perfusion pressure in peripheral organs, especially the brain and kidney. Therefore, patients with heart failure often present with compensatory tachycardia, which can ensure adequate cardiac output when the cardiac function is still compensated, but the blood output per stroke is also reduced due to reduced venous return. Tachycardia cannot compensate for cardiac function indefinitely, and may even lead to worsening of heart failure, manifested as decreased systolic or diastolic function, mainly due to increased myocardial oxygen consumption and decreased myocardial perfusion during diastole and diastole. The tachycardia itself can also lead to myocardial damage, thereby exacerbating the worsening of heart failure.

Heart failure is the terminal stage of various cardiovascular diseases, and an increased heart rate is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. It has been reported that if the heart rate does not increase by 5 beats/min, the periarterial poplar sclerosis score will increase by 0.21, and the stenotic heart rate will increase by 0.21. The progression score increased by 0.27. The association of resting heart rate with periarterial poplar sclerosis was independent of other major risk factors and manifested in the general population, the elderly, hypertensive populations, myocardial infarction, or patients with heart failure. Individuals with increased heart rate tend to aggregate other risk factors, so individuals with increased heart rate are susceptible to cardiovascular disease.

Heart rate is a plausible therapeutic target for heart failure. Reducing the heart rate can improve the force-frequency relationship and increase myocardial contractility; slowing the heart rate can prolong the diastolic period, contributing to the increase of myocardial perfusion and the output per stroke; it can also increase the coronary perfusion time and reduce the oxygen demand of the myocardium. These all contribute to the improvement of cardiac function in patients with heart failure. Beta-blocker therapy reduces mortality by 35% and corresponds to a reduction in the patient’s heart rate of 10-15 beats per minute. A study of carvedilol in the treatment of heart failure showed that patients with a baseline heart rate >82 beats per minute had the most significant reduction in mortality, regardless of the etiology of heart failure. The association of slow or decreased heart rate with a reduction in clinical events was not limited to beta-blocker therapy. The GESICA study of low-dose amiodarone in patients with severe heart failure resulted in a 28% reduction in all-cause mortality at 2 years. In the treatment group, the subsidized baseline resting heart rate fatality rate was similar, showing that the faster the starting resting heart rate, the better the patient’s survival rate, the greater the benefit.

For patients with heart failure, the principle of coupled heart rate control is to try to reduce the heart rate to the slowest heart rate that can be tolerated. The resting heart rate of patients with sinus rhythm is not less than 55 beats/min, and the resting heart rate of patients with atrial fibrillation is not less than 80 beats/min, heart rate does not exceed 110 beats /min after activity.

Elderly patients with heart failure often have atrioventricular block. When giving beta-blockers, digitalis and other treatments to control heart rate and improve new functions, more attention should be paid to monitoring heart rate to avoid serious bradycardia and even cardiac stop.

Plus1Health has a sleep recorder, which can continuously monitor for a long time, monitor heart rate and breathing rate, and automatically generate sleep reports and analysis.

There is also a free heart rate app “Heart Rate“:

Should blood pressure and heart rate be measured after discharge?

When discharged from the hospital, many cardiac surgery patients will be discharged with medication. Doctors will tell some patients that they should pay attention to monitoring blood pressure and heart rate at home. Among them, many patients do not understand, and some patients find it troublesome and do not cooperate. Why monitor blood pressure and heart rate after discharge?

First of all, many patients after heart surgery have not fully recovered heart function and will need long-term medication after discharge. For example, in many valve disease operations, the heart is significantly enlarged before the operation, and the heart function is poor. In addition to the surgical blow, the postoperative heart function is still at a relatively low level. Doctors use a variety of drugs, including cardiotonic, diuretic, and drugs that inhibit myocardial remodeling. Some of these drugs, such as enalapril and irbesartan, are blood pressure lowering drugs that lower blood pressure. Because the initial dose is too small, the antihypertensive effect of most patients is not obvious. However, some patients will be more sensitive and their blood pressure will drop a lot. Seriously, it will affect the blood supply of important organs such as the brain and kidneys. Some patients experience dizziness, severe renal hypoperfusion, and even renal impairment.

Some patients will use digoxin, metoprolol, amiodarone and other drugs after discharge. These drugs lower the heart rate. Generally less than 70 beats/min, use it with caution to prevent bradycardia. If you don’t monitor your heart rate and keep eating and eating, it will cause bradycardia; if it continues, it will lead to serious consequences. There was once a patient who recovered well after cardiac surgery. After the operation, the family members had been taking digoxin without monitoring, which resulted in serious consequences of third-degree atrioventricular block.

In addition, many drugs are started in small doses in the treatment regimen. However, it needs to be gradually increased and adjusted to the maximum tolerated dose to have the best therapeutic effect. If there is no blood pressure and heart rate monitoring data, doctors cannot make adjustments on time, which will significantly affect the therapeutic effect of the drug. Some patients will ask, is it okay to measure blood pressure and heart rate once when they go to the outpatient clinic for reexamination? The answer is: no. Because in the outpatient clinic, a blood pressure measurement is impossible to represent the blood pressure level during the medication period. Moreover, the occasional measurement in the outpatient clinic is often too high and has little value.

Therefore, it is best for patients to follow the doctor’s orders, measure their blood pressure and heart rate at home, record them in time, and give feedback to the doctor in time, which can help the doctor adjust the drug treatment plan and achieve the best therapeutic effect.

Plus1Health has a sleep recorder, which can continuously monitor for a long time, monitor heart rate and breathing rate, and automatically generate sleep reports and analysis.

What are the symptoms and harms of sleep apnea syndrome?

People sometimes hear that some people around you have sleep snoring at night (with apnea) and sleepiness during the day, and think it’s just a matter of poor sleep, snoring, and some people even think that snoring is sleep fragrance performance. In fact, these phenomena are sleep breathing diseases of unknown etiology, which are common and seriously endanger human health. The disease has different degrees of apnea and hypopnea during sleep, and the direct pathogenesis is the stenosis and obstruction of the upper airway (but its pathogenesis is not a simple airway obstruction, it is actually the collapse of the upper airway, accompanied by the respiratory central nervous system moderator disorder), medically known as obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).

The effects of sleep apnea syndrome on the body are enormous. Clinical manifestations are:

1. Snoring (vibration of the soft palate). This snoring is different from simple snoring, the volume is loud and very loud; the snoring is irregular and intermittent;

2. Fatigue or drowsiness during the day;

3. Apnea occurs during sleep, sometimes wake up suddenly, or even sit up suddenly, sweat profusely, and feel near death;

4. Nocturia increases, and individual patients have enuresis;

5. Headache in the morning;

6. Decreased intelligence and memory and personality changes, including short-tempered, depression, etc.;

7. The most important consequence at present is the relationship with chronic diseases. OSAHS can cause high blood pressure and is closely related to coronary heart disease, diabetes, cerebrovascular disease, and sudden death.

Therefore, snoring is often a symptom, and the hidden sleep apnea behind it may lead to systemic problems, seriously affecting the quality of life, physical health and work ability, and it is necessary to actively treat it.

Plus1Health has a sleep recorder that can do sleep monitoring, monitor heart rate, breathing rate, etc. It can also screen for sleep apnea, and automatically generate sleep reports and analysis.

Who is prone to sleep apnea syndrome?

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is a condition in which the upper airway collapses and becomes obstructed repeatedly during sleep. After the occurrence of this disease, patients will have symptoms such as sleep snoring, apnea, and daytime sleepiness, which will greatly affect their normal life. Therefore, it is recommended that people who are prone to this disease actively take relevant preventive measures. So, who is prone to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome?

1. Obese people

Obese people are more prone to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, and obesity itself is an independent risk factor. Moreover, according to clinical findings, more than 60% of patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome have obesity problems, because the negative pressure in the upper airway of obese patients will increase, and the fat in the neck will directly compress the throat , which will lead to a decrease in the residual capacity of the lung function, thereby causing the disease to appear.

2. The elderly

The elderly are also a high-risk group of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, and according to clinical knowledge, with the increase of age, the risk of the disease will gradually increase. Because the function of various organs will decline in the process of aging, and the muscle tone of the throat will also decrease, which will increase the probability of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

3. People with upper airway obstruction disease

People with upper airway obstruction diseases are also very prone to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, such as chronic rhinitis, turbinate hypertrophy, tonsil hypertrophy, etc. Breathing is affected to varying degrees. At this time, if the relevant control is not actively carried out, it is very easy to induce symptoms.

4. Male

Apnea is also related to gender. Men are much more likely to suffer from the disease than women, but women are more likely to suffer from apnea after menopause, which is basically the same as that of men.

5. People with short chins

Some people have a short chin, and the chin will be retracted. The tongue will also retract, resulting in a narrow space behind the tongue. Such people are prone to block the trachea during sleep and cause apnea.

6. For patients who smoke, smoke repeatedly stimulates the upper respiratory tract, and eventually it is easy to develop obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

7. Drinking, if you drink for a long time, especially if you drink a lot, get drunk, your muscles are very relaxed at night, and you are prone to serious sleep apnea.

Those with a family history of sleep apnea syndrome.

The above-mentioned people are prone to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. It is recommended that people who are prone to symptoms should pay attention to the protection of their own bodies in their daily life, and actively carry out correct prevention. At the same time, you should also maintain adequate sleep, choose a suitable pillow height, and ventilate the indoor environment frequently to keep the air unobstructed.

Plus1Health has a sleep recorder, which is used for non-contact detection of human heart rate, respiration rate, and sleep status. , real-time warning. Sleep record also include screening for sleep apnea, preventing disease risks, and providing data basis and analysis for targeted improvement of sleep quality.

What are the dangers of snoring?

Snoring is a very common disease. If it is not pay attention to in life, it may even lead to sudden death. Snoring is a very harmful thing. So what are the effects of this situation on the body?

1. suffocation

The airway of snoring patients is narrow, and they need to open their mouth to breathe to help sleep. After falling asleep, the mouth is habitually closed, and it is easy to hold the breath. After holding the breath for more than a certain period of time, it will cause suffocation and death.

2. Harmful to mental health

Due to long-term snoring, the quality of sleep of patients cannot be guaranteed, so that patients will experience dizziness, headache, lack of concentration and other symptoms during work and study during the day, which will eventually lead to menstrual weakness, hypertension, coronary heart disease and other diseases, and it is easy to form Personality disorders such as inferiority complex, loneliness, anxiety, etc.

3. Cardiovascular disease

Risk of abnormal cardiovascular disease and snoring are closely related. According to the survey, snoring will promote the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases. For example, patients with high blood pressure, heart disease, coronary heart disease, and have severe snoring. Snoring has become the third type of disease that endangers human life.

4. Affect sleep

When snoring patients sleep at night, apnea often occurs, which leads to the inability of patients to enter deep sleep, affects the quality of sleep of patients, leads to drowsiness and mental fatigue during the day, and hinders normal work and life.

5. Insufficient blood oxygen

Snoring will cause frequent apnea in patients, resulting in too low blood oxygen concentration in the patient’s body and brain, resulting in hypoxia in the brain.

6. Affect fetal development

If a woman snores, it can also affect fetal development. Women snoring during pregnancy will have a great impact on the growth and development of the fetus. Frequent snoring can lead to fetal hypoxia, which seriously affects the dual development of fetal growth and intelligence.

7. Affect facial image

Women who snoring will have yellow complexion, rough skin, fat accumulation, bad breath, irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea and other serious symptoms due to poor blood circulation, which will greatly damage their health, and even 3 years to 15 years in advance into menopause.

8. Gastroesophageal reflux

When a person snores, the airway is in a compressed state, and the pressure in the abdominal cavity increases. If the stomach itself is not good, it may cause gastroesophageal reflux, heartburn, indigestion and other symptoms.

9. Influence others to rest

Snoring will affect the rest of others, especially between husband and wife. If the other party sleeps lightly, the patient snores too loudly and cannot rest well. After a long time, it may affect the relationship between husband and wife.

Snoring is a very common situation, but the harm caused by this situation cannot be underestimated. Frequent snoring will not only affect people’s sleep quality, but also easily lead to various diseases. Snoring must be actively treated and prevented.

Plus1Health has a sleep recorder that can do sleep monitoring, monitor heart rate, breathing rate, and screen for sleep apnea, and issue timely and accurate reports. There is also a free snoring APP called “Snore Tracker “.

Are different groups of people affected by snoring?

Snoring is a ubiquitous sleep phenomenon. At present, most people don’t take it seriously, and some people regard snoring as a sign of sound sleep. In fact, snoring is the enemy of health. Because snoring causes sleep apnea repeatedly, it causes severe hypoxia in the brain and blood, resulting in hypoxemia, which induces hypertension, cerebrovascular disease, arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, and angina pectoris. Nocturnal apnea for more than 120 seconds is prone to sudden death in the early morning.

1. Women snoring and looking older

Many women, especially middle-aged and older women who are fatter, also snore. Women snoring and age fast:

(1) Snoring causes poor blood, resulting in loose facial skin, roughness, bad breath, premature crow’s feet, cloudy whites of the eyes, dark circles, large eye bags, irregular menstruation, easy aging and other symptoms, even if you use cosmetics to no avail.

(2) Women’s snoring will make people feel disgusted and disgusted, causing the alienation of lovers and friends. Nervousness during sleep can easily lead to neurasthenia. People will become sensitive and form personality disorders such as withdrawn and anxious.

2. Men’s snoring hurts the body and kidneys

The pace of life in modern society is accelerating, the social environment is complex, and men are under great pressure. Coupled with smoking, drinking, and gaining weight, many men snored when they were sleeping, had sleep apnea, and were often suffocated. Long-term snoring can cause headaches, dizziness, insomnia, forgetfulness, kidney deficiency, immunity and other diseases. Not only did he not sleep well, but he was often complained by those living in the same room.

3. Pediatric snoring needs to be vigilant

Pediatric snoring patients are mostly due to nasopharyngeal adenoid and tonsil hypertrophy or developmental malformations of craniofacial structures. Due to the obvious obstructive lesions of the airway, apnea is prone to occur, resulting in hypoxia, which affects the normal development and learning of children. It has been reported that severe snoring can cause dementia in children. So if your child snores at night, and has trouble concentrating in class, lethargy, memory loss, and poor academic performance, first go to an otolaryngologist to check the nasopharynx and tonsils. If there is significant hypertrophy, appropriate treatment is required.

4. Adolescent snoring affects development

In addition to affecting sleep quality, adolescent snoring also affects many systems in the body. Adolescents with severe snoring are often accompanied by sleep apnea, resulting in nocturnal hypoxia and hypercapnia. Due to the physical growth of adolescents, the necessary growth hormone will only reach its peak during deep sleep. Long-term chronic hypoxia will cause a lack of growth hormone, affect growth and development, and affect academic performance.

5. Snoring of the elderly affects life expectancy

When people get older, their metabolism slows down, and the heart and brain are prone to hypoxia. Snoring will aggravate the hypoxia of the heart and brain, and increase the incidence of hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, arrhythmia, cardiopulmonary insufficiency, heart disease, cerebral thrombosis, vascular dementia and other diseases. If you have already suffered from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, snoring is tantamount to “falling into trouble”, which will make the condition “worse” and make it more stubborn and intractable.

Snoring is a very common disease. If it is not pay attention to in life, it will even lead to sudden death. Snoring is a very harmful thing. Frequent snoring will not only affect people’s sleep quality, but also It is easy to lead to various diseases, so snoring must be actively treated and prevented in life.

Smart elderly care platform empowers elderly care institutions, and smart elderly care homes become the future trend

Smart elderly care is to use the Internet, cloud computing and other technical means to build a “smart elderly care cloud service management platform”. The provision of family members involves six aspects: safety care, health management, life care, leisure and entertainment, family care, and medical services.

The smart elderly care service management platform is an online management tool. Usually, institutions are the entry point, and through the connection of various ports, a unified cloud platform of “institutional pension system”, “home community pension system”, and “health management system” is finally formed. The platform becomes the middle layer adhesive for the upstream corresponding service industry, manufacturing industry and downstream elderly, family members, nursing homes, and communities.

The smart elderly care service management platform is mainly composed of three parts: user management, physical data collection and health data analysis, including: 1. Terminal equipment; 2. Application software; 3. System integration; 4. Server; 5. Application server; 6 .Operation server.

The user management sub-part consists of three system modules: user file management, mobile phone applet and set-top box. The user file management module is mainly used to realize functions such as the establishment of user files and the collection of user personal information. The applet on the mobile phone is mainly used to input and modify the user’s personal information on the mobile phone; receive and query personal health data files and other functions. The set-top box terminal is mainly used to realize the functions of receiving and querying personal health data files on the user’s set-top box terminal, as well as the data transmission function of the terminal smart device.

The physical sign data collection part consists of two system modules: sleep recorder and smart mattress. Sleep recorders and smart mattresses can collect data on human vital signs such as heart rate and breathing rate.

The health data analysis part consists of the personal health data statistics module. The personal health data statistics module will provide users with personal health data statistics and health analysis data.

With the development of Internet and modern technology, through the use of Plus1Health‘s information platform and intelligent hardware products, new solutions have been brought to the process of institutional management, operation and service, so that the elderly can get more comfortable,safe and convenient service. The development of smart nursing homes under the empowerment of smart nursing has become an important development trend of nursing institutions.

What are the modes of smart old age care?

The mainstream models of smart old-age care include: community home-based care model, institutional nursing home model, and the combination of medical care and elderly care. Plus1Health is a manufacturer of smart elderly care solutions.

1. Community home care model

The community home-based care model is essentially an “Internet +” smart care service platform. Healthy elderly care at home, and care institutions install health testing equipment, wearable devices, smart pagers, human sensors and other smart care hardware for the elderly. Through the remote collection of the elderly’s physical, safety, and home life-related data, it is transmitted to the community home-based elderly care system management platform in real time. If there is abnormal data, the intelligent elderly care system will automatically alert the elderly’s guardian; there are professional nursing staff to provide food, housing, transportation, entertainment, health and other related services for the elderly. It is closer to home, and it is more convenient than long-term nursing homes. Realize the close connection between old-age smart devices and the life of the elderly at home in the community, and provide more convenient, professional, efficient and intelligent medical methods for the elderly.

2. Institutional pension model

The closed management nursing home adopts the nursing home management system combined with the intelligent elderly care products such as portable physical examination box, health examination all-in-one machine, intelligent elderly bracelet, intelligent sleeping mattress, intelligent pager and so on. Division of labor management to realize the monitoring of the elderly’s personal files, hospitalization dynamics, physical signs data, emergency calls and other related aspects. Children can remotely know the daily dynamics of the elderly’s hospitalization through the applet, monitor the location safety of the elderly, and keep abreast of the elderly’s hospitalization period. The detection data of various indicators of the body and other affairs.

3. Combination of medical care and healthcare

The combination of medical care and elderly care is the product of smart elderly care in the new era that combines medical resources and elderly care resources, and maximizes the utilization of social resources. Among them, “medicine” includes medical rehabilitation and health care services, health consultation services, health examination services, disease diagnosis and treatment hospitals, postoperative rehabilitation services, and hospice care services. “Nursing” includes life care services, spiritual and psychological services, cultural activities services, elderly care bed services, etc., and integrates medical treatment, rehabilitation, health care, and elderly care as a new type of elderly care model.

Features of Smart Elderly Care:

1. Integration

Smart old-age care can integrate old-age smart equipment manufacturers, smart home-based old-age care system companies, old-age service companies, community home-based old-age care institutions, old-age homes, community properties, housekeeping service agencies, and medical institutions to integrate community old-age care, home-based care and institutional care services. , the elderly can consume in the intelligent elderly care system and enjoy five aspects of care services: medical care, nursing care, clothing, food, housing, transportation, safety monitoring, and life entertainment.

2. Intelligent

The old-age operating agency manages the overall smart old-age solutions through the community home-based old-age system, the old-age home through the smart old-age home system, the Internet management platform and other smart old-age solutions; by installing smart security equipment for the elderly, monitoring the home safety data of the elderly; monitor the safety of the elderly when they go out; monitor the physical health indicators of the elderly in real time through health machines, follow-up kits, health cabins, and smart sleep pads; children know the real-time data of the elderly’s health, safety, and home life through small programs; the doctor of the program receives the abnormal data of the elderly’s body in time and processes it in a timely manner. All data collection, distribution and management are inseparable from intelligent software systems and hardware equipment.

3. Timeliness

The elderly have a sudden myocardial infarction at night, abnormal heart rate and respiratory rate data, rapid heartbeat and shortness of breath. The intelligent detection pad can detect and analyze the data in time, and send early warning information to the relevant responsible person in time; if the elderly falls, the smart watch will give the relevant responsibility in time early warning information and automatic call for help; the blood pressure measured by the elderly at home is too high, and health warning information is automatically sent to the responsible doctor in time, so that the doctor can give a plan treatment in time, etc. The body of the elderly is fragile after years of baptism , every time the warning data issued by the body may be related to the life of the elderly, so the timeliness of the data is very important. The timeliness of hardware data is guaranteed from three aspects: one is the stability of data transmission of intelligent hardware devices; the other is the selection of equipment developed by companies that integrate software and hardware.

The characteristic old-age model under the smart old-age care

Based on the Internet, big data and other foundations of the Internet smart old-age care model, this model can be applied to home-based care, community care, institutional care, rural care, and the birth of a number of characteristic care models under smart care.

1. Types of characteristic pension models

(1) Family old-age care beds: Family old-age beds refer to relying on old-age care institutions and community old-age service centers as fulcrums, extending the specialized old-age care services of old-age care institutions to families, and carrying out aging-appropriate transformation for families with disabled elderly, professional nursing, remote monitoring and other elderly care services.

(2) Smart elderly care community: Smart elderly care community is a new way of elderly care service based on a smart elderly care service platform. Under this model, those key service links are integrated into a comprehensive and integrated elderly care service process, and home care services , community elderly care services, medical services, and entertainment services are linked by the Internet, achieving a comprehensive and in-depth integration.

(3) Virtual nursing home: A virtual nursing home is an information service platform established by the government. When the elderly need services, they can dial a phone call to the information service platform, and the information service platform will send employees of service enterprises to the door according to the requirements of the elderly. Elderly people provide services while monitoring the quality of services. The virtual nursing home realizes the professional nursing at home.

(4) Rural Mutual Aid Points for the Elderly: Based on the concept of “the national government will make a little contribution, the neighbors will help a little, the elderly and their families will provide a little, the service organization will let a little, and the enterprise will donate a little”, with the concept of “neighborhood mutual assistance, level team, smart terminal, points Incentive” is the operating mechanism, combined with big data, Internet, and Internet information platforms to form a four-level service network to achieve unified service scheduling and supervision, and achieve “response to every call”.

2. Advantages

(1) Save personnel capital and increase work efficiency

(2) Allow the elderly to enjoy the treatment of the elderly care institution at home

(3) Cost saving, easy for the elderly to accept

(4) Facilitate supervision and supervision and make services more reassuring

(5) The successful implementation of public welfare mutual assistance for the elderly has inspired young elderly people who can still take care of themselves and the idle population to provide elderly care services for the elderly and those living alone in empty nests who need help.

(6) It has played a positive role in the online and offline promotion of the integration of surrounding resources, the cultivation of talents, and the promotion of various aspects of pension.

The above modes all require the help of Plus1Health‘s smart elderly care solution “hardware and software” — “sleep recorder, smart mattress, smart monitoring screen, cloud platform”, which can monitor heart rate, respiratory rate, abnormal warning , emergency calls, remote viewing, automatic generation of sleep reports and analysis, sent to specific guardians, and screening for sleep apnea syndrome to prevent health risks.
