After this incident, half of the elderly could not live for a year ... Prevention!prevention!prevention!

During home,

Remind you alone:

Be careful! Especially the elderly! Intersection

Studies have shown that the proportion of fractures in the fall of the elderly is as high as 31.79%, and the injured parts are mainly lower limbs (31.38%), followed by head (22.46%) and trunk (20.71%). The proportion of medium -weight damage is 37.21%.

Most of the fractures themselves are not fatal, but the followers of complications are very dangerous -lung infection, deep venous thrombosis, bedsores caused by long -lasting, poor nutritional intake, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, multi -organ failure ...

This kind of difficulty has caused "falling" to become the first cause of death for elderly people over 65 years of age.

01

After a year of fracture, half of the elderly will die!

According to the survey, the mortality rate after the femoral neck fracture of the elderly is as high as 50%! And this fracture that occurs in the hip is also called "the last fracture of life".

Why is the elderly prone to femoral neck fractures?

The elderly's osteoporosis, the bone strength decreases, and the femoral neck will be fragile. Also, the muscles around the hip joint of the elderly atrophic, and cannot protect the femoral neck well. As long as you twist or fall slightly, femoral neck fractures will occur. Even some elderly people have no obvious trauma and will still cause fractures.

Since the fracture is fractured, can you not cure it?

At present, there are two types of femoral neck fractures: surgery and conservative treatment. Most elderly people have some chronic diseases. Many people have hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, etc. It is also a problem to fully get the operating table. In conservative treatment, the survival rate of patients after a year is only 50%. In other words, after a year of fracture, half of the elderly will leave.

02

Why do the elderly "can't fall"?

The fracture of the elderly is not a big deal, but the fatal problem is a complication caused by bed in bed. There are four categories of common complications--

First, pendant pneumonia. The decrease in the amplitude and cough of the elderly after the fracture of the elderly, which can easily cause sputum obstruction and cause lung infection.

Second, urinary infection. After bed, urine excretion is more troublesome. Many elderly people have reduced drinking water in order to go to the toilet, and insufficient urination can easily cause urinary infections.

Third, bedsores. The old man is easy to have bedsores after reducing the number of turns.

Finally, the "Economy Class syndrome" -the deep venous thrombosis: The old man in bed keeps the same posture for a long time, and the blood will condense. Once the blood clot is activated, the blood clot will block the lungs and then form a fatal pulmonary embolism.

How to prevent fractures?

These methods are more useful than bone soup

There is an old saying that "what to eat and make up", so some people think that after the fracture, we should "drink bone soup madly."

In fact, for fractures, as long as the corresponding protein is supplemented, the fracture site can heal. There is no need to drink big bone soup every day. The diet is too greasy to digest and cause other problems.

Therefore, as long as you can supplement your daily needs, you don't have to deliberately drink more bone soup to promote fracture healing.

Prevention is more important than drinking bone soup.

Prevent falling

Falling is a major cause of fractures for the elderly. Preventing the fall of the elderly can reduce the occurrence of fractures.

First of all, many elderly people have fractures caused by accidental falls at night and accidentally falling. Therefore, there are elderly people at home, it is recommended to install floor lights at home.

Second, the bathroom must have non -slip slippers, put anti -slip pads, and even dry the floor after the shower

Third, don't get out of bed immediately after waking up or waking up. After waking up, you can sit on the bed for 1 minute. After the brain is really awake, get out of bed

keep working out

In addition, as the age increases, the muscles of the elderly are shrinking, and normal muscle tissues have become adipose tissues, and the adaptability of the elderly will decrease accordingly.

Therefore, for the elderly, muscle exercise can promote the reaction ability of the elderly. When encountering special circumstances, the central nervous system can timely send instructions to shrink the muscles and then prevent the elderly from falling.

Here, a well -offly recommended "fitness exercise" that can be practiced at any time -"Eight Duan Jin" that can be practiced at any time. During the home period, let's move together!
