Tuberculosis - Early Detection & Treatment

Tuberculosis is one of the most common diseases with a high mortal rate. Although there are vaccines and medicines for treatment, every day the world still records more than 4,000 people dying and nearly 30,000 people suffering.

Vietnam is one of the 30 countries with the highest number of patients in the world accounting for 174,000 new cases and 11,000 deaths in 2018.

Many people mistakenly believe that only smokers but in fact, suffer from tuberculosis. In fact, people including young people and children do not smoke but still get sick.

What is the cause? How it can be prevented and treated? Watch the video below by Dr. Hoang Thi Huong – working at CarePlus to learn more about the above questions.

MASKED HYPERTENSION
Masked hypertension refers to a condition where a patient’s blood pressure (BP) appears normal (below 140/90 mmHg) when measured in a clinical setting but exceeds the threshold of 135/85 mmHg when measured outside the clinic, such as at home or with ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) over 24 hours. The concern with masked hypertension is that it often goes unnoticed, yet it poses significant health risks. If left untreated, it can lead to severe complications such as kidney failure, vision loss, heart failure, and an increased risk of stroke.
