Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

Myth # 3: Hearing aids are too expensive
Myth # 4: You can save time and money buying

The Myths
5. Myth # 1: Hearing aids are
not effective
Reality: A study reported in the Journal of the American Medical
Association comparing the effectiveness of three popular types of
hearing aids concluded that:
“Each [hearing aid] circuit markedly improved speech
recognition, with greater improvement observed for soft and
conversationally loud speech....All 3 circuits significantly reduced the
frequency of problems encountered in verbal
communication....Each circuit provided significant benefit in
quiet and noisy listening situations.”
6. Myth # 2: Hearing aids are
big and bulky
Reality: Hearing aids come in various sizes, with
some models that are nearly invisible when worn.

7. Myth # 3: Hearing aids are
too expensive
Reality: As with most consumer electronics, hearing aids range in
price depending on performance and features. While you may not
want—or need—the top of the line hearing aids, you can probably
find a pair that matches your needs, preferences, and budget.
Most patients also feel that the value of better hearing and a better
life is usually well worth the cost.
8. Myth # 4: You can save time
and money buying hearing
aids online
Reality: Would you buy a pair of prescription glasses online
without first consulting your eye doctor, having an eye exam,
and obtaining your prescription?
Probably not, and buying hearing aids is very similar. Hearing
aids need to be professionally programmed by a hearing
specialist according to your unique hearing loss
characteristics. Otherwise, it’s like wearing someone else’s
prescription glasses.
9. Myth # 5: Hearing aids are
uncomfortable and difficult to
operate
Reality: Digital hearing aids dynamically process sound with a small
computer chip so that you don’t have to worry about manual
adjustments; additionally, some digital hearing aids can even be
controlled through your mobile phone. The bottom line: digital
hearing aids are being manufactured with maximum ease-of-use in
mind.

your life
