Some stroopwafels for you!

Excellent work at hypertension, including the identification of sources that meet the standards of WP:MEDRS. The cardiovascular disease articles on Wikipedia need a lot of work, so your presence is much welcomed. JFW | T@lk 22:56, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

Translation project

We are working on a translation project to both improve than translate key medical articles into as many other languages as possible. The list of articles is here Book:Health care. There are a couple of other cardiovascular related articles that need work before translation including: myocardial infarction, hypercholesterolemia, and cardiovascular disease. Would appreciate your help :-) Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:42, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

New medical organization

Hi

I'm contacting you because, as a participant at Wikiproject Medicine, you may be interested in a new multinational non-profit organization we're forming at m:Wikimedia Medicine. Even if you don't want to be actively involved, any ideas you may have about our structure and aims would be very welcome on the project's talk page.

Our purpose is to help improve the range and quality of free online medical content, and we'll be working with like-minded organizations, such as the World Health Organization, professional and scholarly societies, medical schools, governments and NGOs - including Translators Without Borders.

Hope to see you there! --Anthonyhcole (talk) 21:17, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, Adh30, for links to BHSOC.org & eurheartj.oxfordjournals.org

Thanks, Adh30, for posting that link to BHSOC.org, The British Hypertension Society. Much helpful info at that page, especially the videos on how to interpret the korotkoff sounds while reading a mercury spyhmomanometer. And I found the European Society of Hypertension recommendations, at http://eurheartj.oxfordjournals.org/content/28/12/1462

However, some other issues are not addressed, such as when and how to verify the calibration of a patient’s consumer grade blood pressure device, that is used at home. I find that all consumer grade devices measure inaccurately when new, giving readings that are 5% to 15% too high. And, as the devices age, they drift either up or down. (I know this is true, by comparing with a mercury sphygmomanometer, tee'd into the air line, and a good stethoscope.) IMHO, that is unsatisfactory for the tight tolerance band on acceptable blood pressure. Yet, no one wants to recognize this situation. For example, here in the USA, MDs refuse to let me take a comparison measurement with my sphygmomanometer, right after measurement on their automated machines. Not a comfortable situation.

Thanks for your help. 68.35.173.107 (talk) 22:28, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
