About the Book
La presiâon arterial aumenta naturalmente con la edad, y aunque existe una alta probabilidad de desarrollar hipertensiâon a lo largo de la vida, no necesariamente causa daänos graves, y mucho menos la muerte. La hipertensiâon es completamente tratable y tambiâen se puede prevenir. Los esfuerzos realizados durante varias dâecadas, tanto para aumentar la conciencia pâublica (casi la mitad de las personas con hipertensiâon ni siquiera lo saben) como para estudiar y tratar esta enfermedad, han resultado en una disminuciâon significativa de las muertes por enfermedades cardâiacas y accidentes cerebrovasculares. Este libro incluye informaciâon y herramientas para ayudarle a prevenir que su presiâon arterial alcance niveles peligrosos. Los especialistas de Mayo Clinic explican câomo se desarrolla la hipertensiâon, câomo se diagnostica y se trata, câomo se pueden prevenir las afecciones asociadas y quâe factores ponen en riesgo a los pacientes.Book Synopsis
Blood pressure naturally increases with age, and although there is a high chance of developing hypertension throughout life, it doesn't necessarily cause serious harm, much less death. Hypertension is completely treatable, and it can also be prevented. Efforts over several decades, both to increase public awareness-- almost half of people with hypertension don't even know it-- and to study and treat this disease, have resulted in a significant decrease in deaths from heart disease and stroke. This book includes information and tools to help you prevent your blood pressure from rising to dangerous levels. Mayo Clinic specialists explain how hypertension develops, how it is diagnosed and treated, how associated conditions can be prevented, and what factors put patients at risk.About the Author
