"The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment High Blood Pressure" provides a new guideline for hypertension prevention management. The following are key messages(1) In persons older than 50 years, systolic blood pressure (BP) more 140 mm Hg is much important cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor diastolic BP; (2) CVD, beginning at 115/75 Hg, doubles with each increment 20/10 Hg; individuals who normotensive 55 years age have 90%...
The National High Blood Pressure Education Program presents the complete Seventh Report of Joint Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment Pressure. Like its predecessors, purpose is to provide an evidence-based approach prevention management hypertension. key messages this report are these: in those older than age 50, systolic blood pressure (BP) greater 140 mm Hg a more important cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor diastolic BP; beginning at 115/75 Hg, CVD doubles...

This guideline summarizes the current approaches for diagnosis of venous thromboembolism. The importance early to prevent mortality and morbidity associated with thromboembolism cannot be overstressed. field is highly dynamic, however, new evidence emerging periodically that may change recommendations. purpose this present recommendations based on clinicians aid in lower extremity deep thrombosis pulmonary embolism.
The American College of Cardiology (ACC) and the Heart Association (AHA) have provided leadership in enhancing quality cardiovascular care, including development clinical performance measures registries that permit evaluation care stimulate improvement. Compliance with ACC/AHA metrics encourages provision strongest evidence-based therapies are life-extending or life-enhancing. Among metrics, only a subset should be considered measures-that is, those specifically suitable for public...
<h3>PURPOSE</h3> Continuity of care is broadly associated with better patient health outcomes. The relative contributions continuity an individual physician and a practice, however, have not generally been distinguished. This retrospective observational study examined the impact for patients seen at their main clinic but by different family physicians. <h3>METHODS</h3> We analyzed linked administrative data from 2015-2018 Alberta, Canada to explore association rates emergency department (ED)...
