Disease/Condition Glossary

High Blood Pressure (Hypertension): When blood pressure rises, too much force develops on the lining of the arteries, making the heart work harder to pump blood throughout the body. This results in damage to the blood vessels. If high blood pressure is left untreated, it can lead to stroke, heart attack, heart failure, kidney failure, and eye problems.

Cardiovascular risk: It is usually diagnosed in patients older than 55 years of age and is characterized by blood vessel disease in the heart, brain, or legs (coronary, peripheral, or cerebral vascular disease) or diabetes with organ damage.
