The Green Hearts and Le Coeur De Saint Barth have joined forces to fight against hypertension. Last Sunday at the monthly Marché de Saint Barth, taking place every first Sunday of the month, cardiologist Dr. Yves Journo, Cabinet SOLOMON, Hôpital de Bruyn, was offering free blood pressure tests in an effort to combat hypertension on the island. As the cardiologist serving the island, Dr. Journo’s work is actively preventing one of the leading causes of mortality in the Caribbean.
Events like this remind islanders to take care of their hearts, and improve the overall health of St Barth! The opportunity to recall the importance of fighting this risk factor for cardiovascular disease, also called hypertension by health professionals. High blood pressure is one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular diseases.
Next appointment at Marche de Saint Barth Sunday August 4th.
