Did you know that Cardiovascular disease currently costs the health service, £7.4bn a year and the wider economy £15.8bn? These tests have the potential to save the NHS around £0.5 billion per year as well as freeing up thousands of doctors appointments. More importantly it can save lives through early diagnoses of cardiovascular disease. Like me, if you are over 40, and there is history of heart disease in your family then get one of these tests. 👍 #nhsinnovation

Blood pressure measurement. In Western Medicine we continue to measure patient's blood pressure in the office even though studies have clearly shown the office reading to not correlate with cardiovascular mortality. Ambulatory blood pressures seem the most accurate, a 24-hour average of a person's blood pressure. But it's very tough to obtain this number, and we have yet to come across a cost-effective way of measuring it. Option 3 is the best option: have patients measure their BP at home. Devices are cheap and reimbursed by Medicare, and the numbers have a high correlation with disease outcomes. #hypertension #bloodpressure

The Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) score is a diagnostic tool that measures the amount of calcium in your coronary arteries, offering a glimpse into your cardiovascular risk. A higher score may indicate potential heart issues. Regular assessments help tailor preventive strategies, enabling proactive management and a healthier heart. Consult your healthcare professional to learn more and prioritize your cardiovascular well-being. 💙🔬 #HeartHealth #Prevention #CACScore #EarlyDetection

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a rapidly progressing and severe respiratory disease that frequently leads to lung failure, continues to pose a significant challenge in critical care, with a 43% mortality rate. It can affect people of all ages, including children. The treatment approach for ARDS varies depending on its severity. It primarily focuses on oxygen and fluid therapy to prevent organ failure due to oxygen deficiency in the bloodstream. Mild ARDS can be managed using a mask or high-flow nasal cannulae; moderate to severe cases may require mechanical ventilation or even extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Medtronic Patient Monitoring & Respiratory Interventions W-Europe has introduced several #healthtech innovations to combat this condition along the patient care continuum.

A hypertensive crisis is a severe spike in blood pressure, divided into two types: 1. **Hypertensive Urgency**: - **Definition**: BP ≥180/120 mmHg without immediate organ damage. - **Management**: Gradual BP reduction with oral medications, no hospitalization needed. 2. **Hypertensive Emergency**: - **Definition**: BP ≥180/120 mmHg with acute organ damage (e.g., heart, brain, kidneys). - **Management**: Immediate hospital care and rapid BP reduction with IV medications.

PTCA save the lives of patients by allowing blood to circulate around the body as intended.  Discover the latest insights in our article, 'Understanding PTCA and its Critical Role in Modern Medicine' by Ileah Chissick. PTCA plays a vital role in heart health by dilating narrowed blood vessels using a balloon catheter. It's one of the most common treatments for heart conditions. Understanding PTCA is crucial because it addresses narrowed veins and arteries, promoting healthy blood circulation and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, strokes, and heart attacks.

Known as a "silent killer", #ChronicKidneyDisease (CKD) is a progressive loss of the kidney’s ability to filter blood, affecting how the body eliminates toxins. Up to 90% of kidney function can be lost without a person showing any symptoms. Early diagnosis can make a difference. If detected in its early stages, the deterioration of kidney function can be slowed or delayed, potentially reducing the associated cardiovascular risks. #KidneyHealth #healthylife #lifestyle Fresenius Medical Care Asia-Pacific #healthcare
