๐ World Hypertension Day | Let's raise awareness on the importance of better blood pressure control!
โค๏ธ Cardiac rehabilitation plays a key role in hypertension management. CR combines:
โ Exercise and lifestyle changes that are proven to lower BP and reduce related health risks.
๐ Medical management to ensure patients are on the right medications, understand their treatment, and stay on track.
๐ CR participation has been shown to significantly lower blood pressure - reducing systolic blood pressure by 3โ7 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure by 2 mm Hg.
๐ The ICCPR is a proud partner of the World Hypertension League @WorldHyperLeag - learn more about our efforts to support hypertension management in cardiac rehab here: https://t.co/gmNYhQ65YC

@tmg1297@ClaireR81467246@AVFCOfficial Seriously get a grip will you!! Cardiac conditions have and always have been around, its just there is more awareness of them now from years of good work by cardiac charities.
Hope your son in law is recovering well
Grateful to @MarkIsherwoodMS for spotlighting our joint #SpotLeukaemia campaign with @LeukUK at @SeneddWales yesterday.
A full blood count is all that is needed to diagnose #leukaemia early or rule it out. It is vital that the public and healthcare professionals are aware of the symptoms of leukaemia to improve patient outcomes.

Tom Lockyer, @LutonTown captain, survived a cardiac arrest on the field, thanks to CPR.
Every 90 minutes โ the length of a football match โ at least five people in the UK suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
