Como os adultos com doença cardíaca congênita podem reduzir riscos? Estudo descobre que o monitoramento cardiológico ao longo da vida é essencial
Mayo Clinic

A insuficiência cardíaca é um problema de saúde potencialmente urgente para jovens adultos com doença cardíaca congênita (ACHD). Ela é frequentemente negligenciada e pouco tratada, apesar de as hospitalizações para esse problema continuarem aumentando. A pesquisa da Mayo Clinic revela que jovens adultos nos Estados Unidos que vivem com doença cardíaca congênita têm maior risco de morte ou complicações cardiovasculares após a hospitalização por insuficiência cardíaca. Entretanto, os dados do estudo publicados na revista médica Journal of the American Heart Association também descobriram que os pacientes que receberam cuidados cardiológicos recentes e antes da hospitalização por insuficiência cardíaca tinham menos probabilidade de morrer.

كيف يمكن للمصابين بمرض القلب الخلقي تقليل مخاطر المرض؟ الدراسة وجدت أن مراقبة صحة القلب طوال حياتهم له أهمية كبرى
Mayo Clinic

مدينة روتشستر، ولاية مينيسوتا – يشكّل فشل عضلة القلب مصدر قلق صحي ربما يكون مُلحًا بالنسبة للبالغين الشباب المصابين بمرض القلب الخلقي (ACHD) الذي يتم تجاهله وعدم التعامل معه بجدية في كثير من الأحيان، برغم استمرار تزايد عدد الحالات المحتجزة في المستشفيات بسبب هذا المرض. تبين الأبحاث الصادرة من مايو كلينك أن البالغين الشباب في الولايات المتحدة الذين يعيشون بمرض القلب الخلقي مُعرضون بشكل متزايد لخطر الوفاة أو لمضاعفات أمراض القلب والأوعية الدموية بعد احتجازهم في المستشفى للعلاج من فشل عضلة القلب. ومع ذلك، تبين بيانات الدراسة المنشورة في مجلة جمعية القلب الأمريكية أيضًا أن المرضى الذين كانوا يتلقون مؤخرًا رعاية طبية لأمراض القلب قبل احتجازهم في المستشفى لتلقي علاج فشل عضلة القلب كانوا أقل عُرضة للوفاة.
