Hypertension is a “disease of wealth” that is often mentioned in daily life. It is generally believed that paying attention to diet can be avoided or improved, but In fact, hypertension requires early intervention and long-term standardized treatment. As of 2020, death caused by cardiovascular disease still accounts for the first cause of death among urban and rural residents in my country, with 46.66% in rural areas and 43.81% in urban areas. Hypertension is one of the important factors that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. At the same time, high blood pressure may also affect other organs such as the brain, kidneys, blood vessels, and fundus of the eyes, causing serious complications.
Many hypertensive patients do not receive medication, or do not adhere to long-term medication. For hypertensive patients, unstable and substandard blood pressure, as well as irregular and unsustainable treatment, will put patients at a higher risk of cardiovascular events, cerebral infarction, heart failure and other complications. Therefore, for hypertensive patients, it is particularly important to do a good job of self-health management of blood pressure.
In addition to developing a healthy lifestyle, it is also necessary to accurately measure blood pressure for a long time to know your blood pressure. At the same time, adhere to standardized treatment, don’t stop taking the medicine on your own when you think your blood pressure is normal, and take the medicine regularly according to your own blood pressure peak time, in order to manage your blood pressure.
