Hypertension
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a long-term medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated. Blood pressure is expressed using two measurements - systolic and diastolic pressures. For most adults, normal blood pressure is within the range of 100-130 mmHg systolic and 60-80 mmHg diastolic. High blood pressure is present if the resting blood pressure is persistently at or above 130/80 or 140/90 mmHg. Treatment involves lifestyle modifications and medications such as diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, calcium channel blockers, and beta blockers. Uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to damage of vital organs and increase risk of
Hypertension ( Increased blood pressure)
A condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is too high.
Usually hypertension is defined as blood pressure above 140/90, and is considered severe if the pressure is above 180/120.
Hypertension typically develops over the course of several years. Usually, you don’t notice any symptoms. But even without symptoms, high blood pressure can cause damage to your blood vessels and organs, especially the brain, heart, eyes, and kidneys.
Early detection is important. Regular blood pressure readings can help you and your doctor notice any changes. If your blood pressure is elevated, your doctor may have you check your blood pressure over a few weeks to see if the number stays elevated or falls back to normal levels.
Symptoms of severe hypertension can include: headache,
shortness of breath, nosebleeds, flushing, dizziness, chest pain. visual changes, blood in the urine. These symptoms require immediate medical attention. They don’t occur in everyone with hypertension, but waiting for a symptom of this condition to appear could be fatal.
Treatment for hypertension includes both prescription medication and healthy lifestyle changes. If the condition isn’t treated, it could lead to health issues, including heart attack and stroke.

Blood pressure is a measure of the force of blood pushing against
the walls of the arteries. It can be affected by a number of factors,
including age, sex, obesity, and genetics. There are two types of blood
pressure: systolic and diastolic. Systolic pressure is the maximum
pressure your heart can push against while it’s pumping blood, and
diastolic pressure is the minimum pressure your heart can push
against while it’s pumping blood.
Low blood pressure is a common condition that affects about 50% of
adults over age 50. It can be caused by many things, including obesity,
high blood cholesterol, lack of exercise, and chronic stress. Blood
Pressure Symptoms can include heart disease, stroke, and other
serious health problems.

This document defines hypertension and describes its types, etiology, risk factors, pathophysiology, clinical features, diagnostic evaluations, and management. Hypertension is defined as a systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg or higher and/or a diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or higher. It is managed primarily through lifestyle modifications like diet and exercise changes as well as pharmacological therapies including diuretics, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, and calcium channel blockers. Nursing care involves monitoring vital signs, assessing risk factors, and educating patients on lifestyle changes and medication compliance.
Understand and Manage Hypertension: Key Points and Strategies
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a chronic medical condition characterized by elevated pressure in the arteries. It often develops gradually over time and can lead to serious health complications such as heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage. While hypertension typically presents no symptoms in its early stages, it is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Treatment involves lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet and regular exercise, along with medication if necessary, to help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of complications. Regular monitoring is essential for managing hypertension effectively.

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, refers to blood pressure above 140/90 mmHg. It puts increased stress on blood vessels and vital organs like the heart, brain, and kidneys over time. Common symptoms include headache, dizziness, and fatigue. Treatment involves lifestyle modifications like diet, exercise, and weight loss as well as medications to lower blood pressure such as diuretics, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, ACE inhibitors, and ARBs. The goals of treatment are to prevent complications like heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, and reduce blood pressure to under 140/90 mmHg or 130/80 for those with diabetes or chronic kidney disease.

What Are the Differences Between Invasive and Noninvasive Cardiology?Dr. Sanul Corrielus -Best cardiologist in Philadelphia
Cardiology, the specialized field dedicated to the study and treatment of heart-related conditions, comprises two distinct approaches: invasive and non-invasive cardiology. Thеsе methodologies differ significantly in thеіr techniques, applications, and implications for patiеnts. In this blog, we will discuss disparities between invasive and non-invasive cardiology to shed light on thе nuanced landscape of cardiac carе.5 TIPS TO RELIEVE PAIN

How is infective endocarditis caused.pptx
Endocarditis is a life-threatening inflammation of the inner lining of the heart's chambers and valves. This lining is called the endocardium.
Endocarditis is usually caused by an infection. Bacteria, fungi or other germs get into the bloodstream and attach to damaged areas in the heart. Things that make you more likely to get endocarditis are artificial heart valves, damaged heart valves or other heart defects.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
