Early Detection of Hypertension for a Healthier Life
Thu, 19 Dec 2024Hello Sahabat PRAMITA! Hypertension, often called the silent killer, is a condition many people are unaware of. Without clear symptoms, hypertension increases the risk of organ damage, including the heart, kidneys, and brain, and can lead to strokes.
Routine health checks are essential to:
- Identify the causes of hypertension.
- Assess potential complications.
- Predict disease prognosis.
- Prevent further damage such as heart attacks or strokes.
Recommended additional tests include:
- Kidney function tests: Urea, Creatinine, Uric Acid.
- Apolipoprotein B: Assess cardiovascular risk.
- Electrolytes and hs-CRP: Detect body inflammation.
- ECG (Electrocardiogram): Monitor heart function.
Take proactive steps to manage health with regular screenings.
