Health Checkup for Healthy Individuals
In an aging society, we are striving to realize a society in which people can enjoy a comfortable and relaxed lifestyle. To achieve this, it is important to first understand our health condition.
The Health Examination Department provides physical examinations, general adult health examinations, and specific health examinations. In addition, due to the special nature of a workers’ compensation hospital, we receive many requests for special health examinations (examinations for pollution asthma, pneumoconiosis, asbestos, chromium, organic solvents, etc.) and have strong relationships with the Labor Bureau, health centers, and other administrative agencies.
In recent years, the importance of early detection and prevention of diseases has been increasing, and we are also promoting the enhancement of our docking services in particular.
With our top-level staff and medical system, we are committed to preventive medicine to prevent the occurrence of future diseases.
In addition to the early detection of diseases that you may not be aware of, our Health Screening Department provides detailed evaluation and guidance on physical fitness, body functions, nutrition, and lifestyle patterns, which have not received much attention in the past, and which are often associated with lifestyle-related diseases.
Cerebral infarction is caused by arteriosclerosis and arrhythmia, in which blood vessels become brittle due to hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia (hyperlipidemia), and other factors. Half of all cerebral infarctions recur within 10 years of onset. It is necessary to normalize blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol to suppress the progression of arteriosclerosis, and to treat arrhythmia, such as atrial fibrillation, if present. It is also important to take antithrombotic medications to prevent blood from clotting.
In the case of cerebral hemorrhage, antithrombotic medications are not necessary, but blood pressure control is important.
In the case of subarachnoid hemorrhage, there is little concern if the cerebral aneurysm has been treated, but in rare cases, blood flow may resume in the aneurysm after coil embolization, so periodic examinations are performed. Smoking cessation is mandatory. If you have a family member who has had a cerebral aneurysm or subarachnoid hemorrhage, a head MRI is recommended to check for a cerebral aneurysm.
