According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), in 2016, cardiovascular diseases were the main cause of death in the world. In specifically Vietnam, up to 31% of deaths were found to be related to such diseases. People who are considered to be at high risk of such conditions include those with diabetes, hypertension, obesity, high cholesterol, a family history of cardiovascular disease, an unhealthy lifestyle such as those who smoke, and those who do not exercise regularly. It is advised that people who are deemed to be at high risk of heart and vascular diseases should undergo screening for the disease early. Such screening can be essential in helping to prevent the risk of heart attacks as well as other diseases, such as heart failure, leaky heart valve, varicose veins, among others.
In order to support the community to proactively prevent cardiovascular diseases and minimize subsequent complications, FV Hospital is now offering:
