Hypertension Treatment in Olympia Quironsalud

Hypertension assessment and care are available at JCI-accredited Olympia Quirónsalud in Madrid, Spain. Prices may be around $70 for chest X-rays, $200 for carotid ultrasound, $300 for blood analysis, and $500 for cardiovascular diagnosis. Dr. José María Mostaza heads the Vascular Risk Unit and focuses on secondary hypertension and vascular risk.

Tests for hypertension and vascular risk

The clinic checks blood pressure and cardiovascular risk, then may investigate causes beyond primary hypertension. Dr. Mostaza’s unit reviews personal and family history and uses targeted tests when secondary hypertension is suspected. This assessment is indicated for hypertension starting in children or young people, or severe readings above 160/100 mmHg in patients under 40.

• Imaging and blood tests: Chest X-rays, carotid artery ultrasound, extended blood analysis, and a full cardiovascular diagnosis are available. A Premium Check-up may be around $2,800.
• Healthscan MRI: A 3 Tesla whole-body MRI uses integrated AI. The radiation-free session lasts about 60 minutes and can check for vascular changes.
• Sleep assessment: Home polysomnography and seven-day chronobiological sensors can detect sleep apnea, a possible cause of secondary hypertension.

Care and risk reduction programs

The clinic offers medical management, preventive care, lifestyle support, and sleep assessment. Care may address high blood pressure alongside cholesterol, diabetes, weight, smoking, and other cardiovascular risks.

• Cardiovascular risk-factor management: The team identifies risk factors, adjusts treatment, and follows blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes over time.
• Preventive cardiology: This program estimates personal risk, identifies risk factors, and sets lifestyle changes. The clinic reports that controlling risk factors may reduce cardiovascular risk by up to 80%.
• Lifestyle and Functional Medicine: The plan may include a Mediterranean diet, weight control, stress management, and smoking cessation. Exercise guidance is 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity weekly, or 75 minutes of vigorous activity.
• Sleep Unit care: The unit assesses and treats sleep apnea, which can contribute to secondary hypertension.
