  • Increase Heart Health Awareness: Unikom Medical Center Holds Free Cholesterol Checkup

    Increase Heart Health Awareness: Unikom Medical Center Holds Free Cholesterol Checkup

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM – Heart disease and stroke are the leading causes of death in the world. One of the main risk factors for these diseases is high cholesterol levels. The good news is that public awareness of the importance of regular cholesterol checks is increasing. Checking cholesterol levels regularly is a positive step in the prevention of heart disease and stroke. With early detection and a healthy lifestyle, we can maintain heart health and live longer. For example, UNIKOM Medical Center routinely carries out a free health examination program every month for all UNIKOM academicians, lecturers, staff, and students.

    UNIKOM Medical Center conducted a cholesterol level check on Thursday, February 5, 2025. Cholesterol examination is a blood test to measure the total amount of fat substances (cholesterol and triglycerides) in the blood. The blood check is useful for knowing whether someone has high cholesterol levels or not. Enthusiasm for today’s cholesterol check is quite high. Individual awareness, both from educators and students, of the importance of health is also high. However, the results showed that many participants had high cholesterol levels. Therefore, the medical team will continue to educate about the importance of maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle.

    dr. Rafika Astarina, as the doctor in charge of the program, said that “Many patients who come have high cholesterol. So we try to check regularly because we see the dangers of high cholesterol. We detect early, prevent, and also if there is indeed a high one, we try to educate, and if necessary, we give medicine,” she said. This activity aims to increase the awareness of lecturers, staff, and students of the importance of health. In addition, this activity also aims to provide education about healthy lifestyles, especially diet and regular exercise.

    Furthermore, dr. Rafika advised “Hopefully with this cholesterol check program, the academic community or UNIKOM students can further improve a healthy lifestyle because everything returns to the lifestyle of each individual. Now indeed our food cannot be avoided, but we can choose which one is good and which one is healthy. For UNIKOM’s own steps, it is very good, because it facilitates directly, so it does not only care about education but also health, especially for its employees and students,” she concluded.
    It is expected that free cholesterol examination programs such as those organized by UNIKOM Medical Center can continue to be carried out regularly. Therefore, it is increasing public awareness, especially in the UNIKOM academic community, about the importance of regular health checks. (Directorate of Hms & Pro)
