The difference between fainting and pretending to faint

The difference between fainting and pretending to faint. I fainted, and everyone was afraid. In daily life and work, you may encounter others fainting. This situation is caused by some diseases. Let's see the difference between fainting and pretending to faint.

The difference between fainting and pretending to faint 1 The difference between fainting and pretending to faint mainly includes the following aspects. The symptoms before the first fainting are different. There may be sweating and dizziness before fainting. Besides these common phenomena, there may be some other symptoms. Pretending to be dizzy seems to have more acting ingredients, which looks fake and has no obvious symptoms.

Second, the symptoms after fainting are different. Real fainting has abnormal breathing and heartbeat. Especially when using some medical equipment to detect, there will be some accidents in many aspects of the body, and the abnormal situation after fainting like this is the real fainting. Pretend to be dizzy, breathing and heartbeat are normal, and if it is detected by medical equipment, there is nothing unusual.

Usually, there is no special difference between syncope and syncope in clinic, which is manifested as sudden loss of consciousness, and there is no essential difference.

If the loss of consciousness is transient, you can wake up immediately after fainting, and this time is called syncope. There are many reasons for syncope, most of which are related to cardiogenesis. Need to consider whether there is transient arrhythmia, myocardial ischemia and vasovagal syncope.

For example, postural hypotension, reflex syncope, cough or urination should also be alert to acute cerebrovascular disease. When you faint or don't wake up after fainting, this time is called consciousness disorder. When there is a disturbance of consciousness, we must consider whether there is any situation in the brain, whether there is hypoglycemia or hypotension.

No matter what causes the syncope, immediately ask the patient to take the supine position, take the position of head low and feet high, loosen the belt, pay attention to keep warm and don't catch cold. You can also do centripetal massage from the patient's lower limbs to promote blood flow to the brain. At the same time, you can press the patient's Hegu point or Renzhong point to make the patient awake through pain stimulation.

Dizziness, dizziness and syncope are not the same literally, and the meanings behind them are also somewhat different. A person's dizziness can be described as dizziness, dizziness, or confusion. This is dizziness. Vertigo has an accurate meaning, that is, the surrounding environment is rotating or rotating, and there is a feeling of swinging or moving horizontally.

This is an illusion of movement. Vertigo can be triggered immediately, such as turning three or five times in the same place and suddenly stopping, you will feel that everything is spinning. Syncope refers to a sudden loss of consciousness, such as feeling dizzy now and just now, but it may get better in a few seconds or minutes. Syncope is sudden, I have no idea.

If the patient faints and knows that the person next to him is talking, it must not be syncope; Syncope must be unconscious. Dizziness is very common, and it may be caused by insufficient blood supply to the head, lack of sleep and unexpected stimulation. Some people will feel dizzy suddenly when sleeping on their side. This is otolith, also known as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.

Physical examination showed nystagmus, which is a very typical otolith. The crystal in the semicircular canal of the inner ear is called otolith, which will cause otolith when it falls off. Manual reduction treatment is needed, that is, turning 180 degrees in the position of dizziness. There are several reasons for syncope. The first is cerebrovascular syncope, such as obvious stenosis of vertebral artery and vascular distortion caused by activity.

The interruption of blood flow caused syncope. The second is cardiogenic syncope, for example, the pulse suddenly drops from 60 to 40, and insufficient pumping causes syncope; Or ventricular atrial fibrillation, you will definitely faint. The third is reflex syncope, such as syncope caused by cough, which wakes up after a few seconds. The jugular vein has a very special structure. When coughing, the pressure fluctuates and the sympathetic nerve is excited.

Sudden contraction of blood vessels leads to syncope; There are also examples, such as low blood pressure, rapid standing or urination leading to voiding syncope, which is due to the decrease of abdominal pressure after urination, the accumulation of blood flow in the abdomen, or sudden standing and sudden drop of blood pressure leading to syncope; There are still a lot of syncope that can't be detected. For example, when an old man fainted, his face was pale and his pulse dropped from 70 to 80 to 40.

The diagnosis is a heart problem. Before, the old man's pulse dropped to more than 40 in the early morning, and later his condition was serious, even forty or fifty times during the day. Later, a pacemaker was installed at the suggestion of cardiology department, and no syncope occurred after the pacemaker was installed, so it must be cardiogenic syncope.

The difference between fainting and pretending to faint depends on the specific situation. As far as I can remember, I only fainted once, and that was when I was in my hometown in junior high school. It was winter then. Like our family, we will make a fire to keep warm, because the fire is not tightly sealed and it is easy to cause gas poisoning. That time I got up in the morning to prepare for school.

After getting up, I have to open the door of the house first, but I didn't have the strength to stand at the door that day. A few minutes after I opened the door, I couldn't stand still because I was weak, and then I fainted at the door. Later, I was put to bed by my father, and then I got gout in the house. I fainted for more than an hour before I woke up. I really fainted that time.

In fact, there are several ways to judge whether a person really fainted or faked fainting.

The first way is to blow his eyes. If he faints, no matter how hard you blow his eyes, they won't move. If he faints, blow his eyes unexpectedly, and he will close his eyes reflexively, so as long as his eyes move, it means he is pretending to faint.

The second method is to scratch his itchy places, such as soles of feet and armpits. Generally, no one can control himself to be tickled without moving. This can be said to be a hundred trials.

The third method is mild, and you can tell jokes to each other, provided that you guarantee that your jokes can really make people feel funny.

In fact, basically these methods can try out whether a person is really dizzy or fake dizzy. If you really faint, you must call 120 emergency number. In fact, we should not cheat people like this at ordinary times, because you can only cheat people who care about you.

The difference between fainting and pretending to faint 3 What is the reason for fainting?

First, cerebral syncope

Because the blood vessels in the brain and the blood vessels supplying blood to the brain have circulatory disorders, it is easy to cause a large area of brain blood supply deficiency at one time. This situation often occurs mainly among the elderly. The common one is mainly caused by insufficient blood supply to the brain for a short time. Therefore, patients need to prevent cerebral arteriosclerosis and reduce cerebral vasospasm. Patients with diseases need to take medicine regularly.

Second, vasovagal syncope.

This often happens among young people. But vasovagal syncope can be caused by inducement. For example, when patients urinate, cough or feel nervous, they are prone to syncope. Moreover, patients will not have other symptoms before syncope, but they will recover quickly and there will be no sequelae. Some patients can relieve such diseases through special exercise after syncope, while some serious patients need to take drugs.

Third, deficiency of qi and blood.

Syncope caused by deficiency of qi and blood mostly occurs in women. Due to the lack of heart qi, there is a problem with blood supply to the brain, and it is easy to faint after being stimulated by the outside world. For example, some pregnant women will faint because of lack of qi and blood, and need symptomatic treatment and timely nutrition.

Fourthly, cerebral syncope.

This condition is usually caused by cerebrovascular disease, epilepsy or brain injury. Some patients fainted because of mental stimulation.
