Myocarditis is a relatively common disease, multiple infections caused by a virus, its duration is longer, more difficult in patients with treatment adherence. When the body with low immunity or re-invasion by viruses and other pathogenic factors, the heart will once again came under attack, over time, continue to persistent and repeated illness, myocardial pathological changes irreversible, can be transformed into cardiomyopathy.

The prognosis of myocarditis and cardiomyopathy very different, generally speaking, myocarditis can be treated, but the pathological changes of cardiac cause was progressive deterioration, not reverse, the prognosis is poor. Therefore, to prevent heart disease, myocarditis into a very important significance. Myocarditis must not “sloppy.”

In order to prevent the disease myocarditis protracted and repeated, so that the following is very important.

1, increase awareness and vigilance of this disease. After a virus infection, such as patients with fatigue, palpitations, suffocation, pale and other symptoms should be fully mindful of the possible occurrence of viral myocarditis, it is timely given the necessary checks. In addition to a comprehensive physical examination, there should be ECG, X ray chest, enzymes, echocardiography, Holter monitoring and other checks, so that a timely diagnosis.

2, regular and timely treatment. After the diagnosis, treatment should be timely, accurate, formal. Condition improves to regularly followed up, review, long-term treatment adherence.

3, pay attention to the rest. After the diagnosis should immediately rest in bed for a month or so. For patients with suspected myocarditis should also be restrictions on the activities of early, regular follow-up. Condition improved, it should gradually increase the volume of activity and avoid strenuous exercise and excessive fatigue.

4, concurrent infection prevention and control. In addition to taking general preventive measures, for immunocompromised persons, can be properly applied immunomodulator, immune enhancer, or Chinese medicine. With chronic Gan Ranzao should be removed in due course. In addition to the prevention of respiratory tract infection, we must also note that the digestive tract infections, because disease-causing viruses such as Coxsackie myocarditis in A, Coxsackie B, ECHO viruses are enteric viruses.

5, a balanced nutritional diet. Proper diet, adequate calories, protein, various vitamins, minerals and trace elements intake, avoid partial eclipse, choose food, hungry, or eat too much saturated impermanence.
