World Heart Day – Screening tests

World Heart Day was established in 1999 and has been organised every year since then by the International Heart Federation, with the support of the World Health Organisation. It aims to inform and raise awareness of cardiovascular diseases among the international public. Cardiovascular diseases, despite the rapid progress made in recent years in their prevention and treatment, are still the most common cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide.

The heart is the most precious organ of the human body. It is a physical pump, the size of a fist, that takes blood from the veins and sends it to the arteries. It is particularly vulnerable to modern lifestyles, eating habits and ineffective stress management, which is why the following advice is suggested:

• Quit Smoking
• Maintaining normal weight
• Balanced diet with fibre
• Physical exercise of moderate intensity 5 times a week
• Reduce alcohol to a minimum
• Regular preventive check up

Prevention, especially for heart disease, is the most important way to protect yourself. In the context of World Heart Day, Euromedica Group offers a comprehensive cardiac check-up, as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility programme, at a preferential price without the use of a referral.
