| Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a common frequently-occurring disease and has a high mortality, CHD caused serious threat to the health of human beings and has become one of the diseases with highest mortality in the world. Through a lot of research have been very clear the risk factor for CHD, Among them the most important risk factors is smoking, unreasonable diet, obesity, mental pressure, behavior personality of type A, and high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, diabetes etc. At present, Western medicine treatment mainly composed of drugs, Coronary artery interventional surgery and Coronary artery stent implantation surgery etc. At the same time complementary with traditional Chinese medicine, to give priority to improve cardiac function, relieve clinical symptoms, prevention and treatment of complications. CHD cannot be cured at present, As a result, how to actively prevent CHD is a serious challenges which clinical medical workers must face. Prevention of CHD can be divided into level3, Primary prevention means, for those who were not diagnosed with CHD, active intervention cardiovascular disease risk factors in order to prevent the occurrence of CHD. Secondary prevention means, for patients with CHD, take drug or non-drug treatment measures for active treatment to prevent CHD development. Tertiary prevention means, active treatment of complications, stable condition, protect heart function, to prevent recurrence, and actively rescuing severe patients, prevent the death, and improve the quality of survival. Prevention and control of CHD can’t "better late than never", So the prevention of CHD focus on primary prevention, modern medicine advocates "primary prevention" is to save for a rainy day, prevent the happening of the CHD. Traditional Chinese medicine in clinical treatment and prevention of the disease has a unique advantage, In TCM the theory of " cure not ill" attaches great importance by the medical workers."cure not ill" consists of three layers,"to prevention in advance before sick""to prevent the development after illness""to prevent recurrence after body recovery", The core idea is emphasized "prevention", to give full expression to the thought of "prevention first", The theory of "cure not ill" are extremely similar with the concept of modern tertiary prevention. It is necessary to combined "cure not ill" with the tertiary prevention, give full play to the advantages of the combination of TCM and Western medicine active prevention and treatment of CHD, is the new ideas of CHD prevention and control in the future. On the basis of "cure not ill", the concept of health management arises at the historic moment, the core of health management is active prevention and control the threat risk factors to health, at the same time actively implementing "tertiary prevention". Therefore, how to combined with the idea of "cure not ill",tertiary prevention and health management, to construct China’s national conditions of CHD prevention and control mode, is an important worthy subject for further research. This article will from smoking, diet, obesity, mental pressure, behavior personality of type A, high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia and diabetes to show that TCM plays an important role in the Primary prevention of CHD. Many studies have shown that, TCM plays an important role in the aspect of intervention risk factors which caused CHD.Its main by adjusting their own spiritual and material life, improve the lipid metabolism, protect myocardial cells and arterial endothelial cells, inhibit the production of harmful inflammatory markers, affects the heart blood flow dynamics, improve insulin and leptin resistance and adjust the disorders function of endocrine and central nervous system,affect the occurrence and development of CHD. So called for the broad masses of medical workers pay attention to the primary prevention of CHD-TCM intervention-the concept of health management, in order to have a breakthrough in the process of coronary heart disease prevention and control. |
