“EECP and ILIB Therapy: Non-invasive Treatments for Cardiovascular Disease and Stroke Recovery”

2023-05-05 08:00:00

Cardiovascular disease has been ranked among the top 3 causes of death in China for 25 consecutive years. On average, 1 in 5 people over the age of 65 suffers from heart disease. EECP external counterpulsation therapy can provide another treatment for patients who are inconvenient to operate Choice; and some stroke patients are injured due to brain hypoxia. In addition to drugs and rehabilitation, ILIB intravenous laser auxiliary treatment can help increase blood circulation in the brain and accelerate recovery.

EECP external counterpulsation therapy non-invasive, low risk, new weapon for cardiac rehabilitation

Applicable to: high blood pressure, heart disease (heart stent/heart failure), diabetes and other cardiovascular diseases, stroke, male erectile dysfunction, sleep disorders and other symptoms.

As we get older, blood vessels will become less elastic due to thickening and hardening of the blood vessel walls, and the space in the blood vessels will also become narrower, increasing the risk of stroke and angina pectoris.

Li Xuanze, an attending physician at the Department of Cardiology at Sanxia Enzhugong Hospital, pointed out that patients with angina pectoris and ischemic heart disease usually rely on drugs or surgery to relieve symptoms. For example, the familiar “cardiac catheter” places stents in blood vessels. Or use “coronary artery bypass surgery” to bypass blocked blood vessels directly. However, for older people with chronic diseases, these treatments may be invasive, high-risk, and drug side effects, so that patients cannot receive treatment, or they still suffer from chest tightness, chest pain, and wheezing after treatment. You can consider using “EECP (Enhanced External Counter Pulsation) external counterpulsation therapy” to improve the quality of life.

“EECP External Counterpulsation Therapy” is a non-invasive treatment. It exerts and releases pressure on the patient’s lower body through several cuffs, reduces intravascular resistance, and promotes angiogenesis. Li Xuanze explained that in addition to improving myocardial function, reducing angina pectoris and heart failure symptoms, EECP is also widely used for rehabilitation after ischemic stroke, Parkinson’s disease, erectile dysfunction, and sleep disorders because it can improve blood circulation patients, and those looking to improve athletic performance. For patients who are not suitable for surgery or cannot bear the side effects of drugs, the low risk and convenience of EECP can be said to open a new window of treatment.

ILIB Intravenous Laser Therapy Improves Blood Circulation, Relieves Pain, Helps Rehabilitation of Stroke Patients

Applicable to: heart disease, numbness of hands and feet, nervous system disease, cerebrovascular disease and other symptoms.

Stroke is one of the important causes of disability and death. Even if the patient survives the treatment, he may still face sequelae such as limb motor dysfunction, sensory dysfunction, language disorder, swallowing disorder, etc., requiring long-term medication and rehabilitation. health treatment.

Xue Qianchuan, the attending physician of the Rehabilitation Department of Sanxia Enzhugong Hospital, pointed out that in order to help patients recover more effectively, the newly introduced intravenous laser therapy can not only help patients repair tissues and wounds, but also increase blood circulation in the brain after a stroke, providing long-term benefits for patients. Helping your recovery journey.

“ILIB (Intravascular Laser Irradiation of Blood) Intravenous Laser Therapy” uses a variety of specific wavelengths of low-energy laser light (such as red light, blue-violet light, infrared light, etc.) with medical effects to irradiate blood through intravenous indwelling needles.

Xue Qianchuan explained that the irradiated red blood cells will increase the oxygen carrying capacity and promote blood circulation, just like letting the blood sunbathe to achieve blood purification. In addition, it can help activate white blood cells and reduce platelet aggregation, so it can regulate immunity, prevent thrombosis, myocardial infarction and stroke, and help promote cell regeneration and repair, promote metabolism and detoxification, such as improving allergies, asthma, and promoting wound healing and postpartum accelerated recovery.

However, people who are allergic to photosensitivity, people with poor blood coagulation function or pregnant women are not recommended to try it. The doctor reminds that they should discuss with the attending physician before treatment to find out the most suitable treatment method and course of treatment.
