Respiratory failure in children is a common disease of the airways causing damage to the lungs or diseases of the brain, nerves and muscles. Respiratory failure if not treated in time will affect the life of the child, even death. At Vinmec hospital, based on the children's health status, we have selected and successfully applied the arterial catheterization method to monitor blood pressure in the treatment of respiratory failure in children.

Hi doctor! Why is the blood pressure measured when sitting down so much higher than lying down (more than 10 mmHg difference for diastolic blood pressure)?

High blood pressure is a cardiovascular disease that can cause many dangerous complications. Therefore, regular blood pressure monitoring is essential. Currently, there are many types of machines that help patients monitor blood pressure regularly but are extremely simple, including the Holter blood pressure method.

I usually monitor my blood pressure every morning and evening. I see that my heart rate only fluctuates from 55-60. So the doctor asked me if my heart rate fluctuates from 55-60 beats / minute, is it okay? Thank you doctor.

Hello Doctor, Can you tell me the signs of white coat hypertension? Thank you.

Blood pressure is one of the simplest parameters to assess human health. High or low blood pressure will make us tired, uncomfortable and even lead to many dangerous complications. Understanding the two components of the blood pressure index, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, will help people understand the basics of their health and know what to do to maintain good blood pressure levels.

Blood pressure disease, including high blood pressure or low blood pressure, is the main cause of death and disability due to complications of the heart, brain, blood vessels, etc. Therefore, regularly checking blood pressure at home is a simple and convenient method for everyone to monitor their own health and prevent blood pressure diseases.
