NHS在英格兰各地参与的药店为40岁以上的成年人提供免费血压检查, The NHS is providing free blood pressure checks at participating pharmacies across England for adults over 40 who don’t know they have high blood pressure. 这项服务旨在早期发现未诊断的高血压,过去6个月中曾接受过诊断或检查的人无法获得这项服务。 The service, aimed at early detection of undiagnosed hypertension, is not available to those with a prior diagnosis or who had a check in the past six months. 接受过培训的药房工作人员使用手铐进行测试,结果可能会促使人们建议进行普通医生检查、改变生活方式或家居监测。 Trained pharmacy staff perform the test using an arm cuff, and results may prompt recommendations for a GP visit, lifestyle changes, or home monitoring. 这些检查不需要预约,目的是帮助预防心脏病和中风。 The checks require no appointment and are intended to help prevent heart disease and stroke.
