Cerebral apoplexy is an acute cerebrovascular disease with a rapid and dangerous course, even life-threatening. However, many patients with kidney disease may not know that this terrible complication can also occur during the development of kidney disease.
This is due to the fact that a significant proportion of patients with kidney disease may have different cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications, and without control and treatment, they are prone to sudden cerebral apoplexy.
So,
Which diseases are most likely to cause stroke,
How to prevent it?
Hypertension
Renal hypertension can compress blood vessels in the brain, causing them to become diseased. The diseased cerebral blood vessels can cause a stroke. For this reason, patients with hypertension and kidney disease must measure and record the changes in blood pressure, take antihypertensive drugs on time, and eat a low-salt diet.
Nephrotic patients with normal blood pressure should not be taken lightly. It is best to regularly measure blood pressure and develop good living habits.
Diabetes
When kidney disease patients are accompanied by diabetes, the body becomes diseased, and the sugar in the blood cannot be sent to the tissues and organs in time, which makes the brain tissue unable to obtain enough energy, and it is easy to have a stroke over time. It is suggested that nephrotic patients with diabetes or high blood sugar should improve their lifestyle, eat low sugar diet and exercise frequently to reduce their blood sugar level.
In addition, it is necessary to regularly check indicators such as blood sugar, glucose tolerance, and glycosylated hemoglobin to understand the condition.
Hyperlipidemia
Abnormal blood lipids can lead to vascular lesions and are a key cause of stroke. Patients with hyperlipidemic nephropathy should eat less high-fat meat, limit fat, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. In addition, you must also take lipid-lowering drugs according to your doctor's instructions.
Heart disease
Not only are heart attacks scary, but the complications caused by heart attacks are equally scary. A stroke is one of them. Patients over 40 years of age with kidney disease should have regular physical examinations to prevent heart disease. Patients who have been diagnosed with heart disease must actively cooperate with doctors for treatment, and adopt various treatment methods such as diet, exercise, and medication to control heart disease.
In addition to patients with kidney disease, other patients with these diseases also need to be vigilant, pay high attention to their own disease changes, timely report and control, and curb the process of acute cerebral stroke.
