The organ crisis behind hypertension

EECP treatment can adjust the blood pressure,protect the vascular endothelium,prevent and slow down the development of atherosclerosis.

About 60% of patients with hypertension have heart, brain, and kidney damage, and these damages often progress quietly without the patient's knowledge.

Left ventricular hypertrophy: Long-term high pressure forces the heart muscle to compensatory thickening. Studies have shown that the incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with hypertension is as high as 30%, which not only reduces the efficiency of the heart's pumping, but also increases the risk of heart failure by 3 times

Aortic dissection: A sudden rise in blood pressure may tear the aortic lining, forming a "vascular bomb". This disease has an acute onset and a high mortality rate. Patients often seek medical treatment due to sudden chest pain, but may die within a few hours.

Atrial fibrillation and stroke: Hypertension enlarges the left atrium and increases the risk of atrial fibrillation by 5 times. During atrial fibrillation, the detachment of blood clots in the heart can cause cerebral stroke. Among the approximately 3 million stroke patients in China each year, 60%-70% are related to hypertension.

Proteinuria and renal failure: High blood pressure damages the glomerular filtration membrane, causing protein leakage. In the early stage, it only manifests as microalbuminuria. If it is not controlled, it may progress to end-stage renal disease in 10-15 years. Among chronic kidney disease patients in China, 30% are directly caused by hypertension.

Cerebral infarction and dementia: Long-term hypertension accelerates arteriosclerosis, and cerebral vascular stenosis or blockage causes cerebral infarction. More secretly, hypertension can also damage white matter in the brain, increasing the risk of cognitive decline by 37%. Among patients over 65 years old, 1/3 of dementia is related to hypertension.

Arteriosclerosis and aneurysm: High pressure impacts the blood vessel wall, accelerates atherosclerosis, and the rate of carotid artery plaque formation is 2.5 times that of normal people. The mortality rate of abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture is as high as 80%, and hypertension is its main cause.
