Why should heart disease patients undergo sleep monitoring?

Sleep is closely related to heart health. Sleep monitoring for heart disease patients can help identify the following issues:

1. Heart burden: During sleep, the burden on the heart changes. For heart disease patients, the heart may experience additional stress and load during sleep. Monitoring sleep can help evaluate the function and workload of the heart during rest.

2. Respiratory problems: Some heart diseases, such as heart failure or arrhythmia, may lead to sleep breathing problems, such as sleep apnea syndrome or nocturnal hypoxemia. Monitoring sleep can detect the presence and severity of these respiratory problems.

3. Blood pressure control: Sleep is crucial for blood pressure control in heart disease patients. Poor sleep may lead to increased or unstable blood pressure fluctuations, increasing the risk of cardiovascular events. By monitoring sleep, we can understand the changes in blood pressure during sleep and help doctors adjust treatment plans.

4. Arrhythmia monitoring: During sleep, arrhythmias may occur or worsen. Monitoring arrhythmia during sleep can provide a more comprehensive assessment of cardiac health and help adjust the use of antiarrhythmic drugs.

In summary, sleep monitoring is very important for patients with heart disease. By understanding sleep and the state of the heart during sleep, doctors can better assess heart health, adjust treatment plans, and provide more effective care and advice.

Plus1Health has a sleep recorder that can perform sleep monitoring without perception or contact with the human body. It is safe and reliable, with accurate monitoring data. It can monitor heart rate and respiratory rate in real-time, detect heart rate abnormalities and other cardiac abnormalities in a timely manner, and automatically generate sleep reports.
