Article Synopsis
- - This study examined a cardiovascular risk assessment program for soldiers aged 40 and older to find hidden health risks and check if they followed up on medical advice.
- - Soldiers participated by undergoing tests like blood tests, waist measurements, and blood pressure checks, with a healthcare professional providing feedback and follow-up recommendations.
- - Although the program identified many soldiers needing further evaluation, only 24% of those advised to seek medical care actually did, suggesting that stronger follow-up efforts are needed to ensure proper treatment.
