It is commemorated every year on May 17. More than a billion individuals worldwide, or more than 30% of the adult population, suffer with hypertension. It is the main cause of cardiovascular disorders, especially heart attack and coronary artery disease.

Heart Attack: Life Threatening to Youngsters

There was a time when heart diseases and illness were associated with old age. It was unbelievable that a youngster could be diagnosed with it. But today, things are different. Heart diseases, including heart failure, have been on the rise for the younger generation of the population due to sedentary lifestyle choices, changes in dietary habits, and variables like stress, anxiety, and obesity. Heart failure is a chronic illness that develops when the heart cannot pump blood effectively enough to meet the body's tissues' metabolic needs. Weakened heart muscles result in insufficient blood flow to the cells, which causes exhaustion, shortness of breath, and other heart failure symptoms. It primarily comes on by the accumulation of fatty deposits in the artery walls and excessive levels of cortisol pushed on by excessive stress. Causes of heart disease in Youngsters – * Smoking * High blood pressure * Diabetes * Coronary artery disease * Bad heart valves The illness ca

EECP therapy is a boon for long-term COVID patients

Image
  EECP is a non-invasive approach that has been found to enhance cerebral and heart perfusion. When EECP patients arrive at the clinic, they lie down on a treatment table and have three sets of pneumatic cuffs placed on their calves, thighs, and lower hips. The mechanism for the cuffs to consecutively inflate from the legs up to the hips during the heart's resting phase is a three-lead electrocardiogram. The cuffs deflate simultaneously with the heart's beginning of the contraction phase. The heart muscle and the rest of the body are both subjected to the regulated inflation and deflation. A patient may have up to 35 therapy sessions over the course of a week, each lasting an hour. New research demonstrates that extended COVID, a condition that affects endothelial function and vascular health, is a disease. EECP is a non-invasive, disease-modifying treatment that has been proved in controlled clinical trials to enhance endothelial function. Worldwide, an estimated 50% of CO
