Tuesday, May 17^th 2022: Lloyd Institute of Management and Technology's COMMUNITY CLUB organises a Blood Pressure Measurement Camp on the significant occasion of "World Hypertension Day". World Hypertension Day is held on May 17 annually to promote blood pressure awareness. The World Hypertension League, an umbrella organisation of national hypertension societies and leagues with 85 countries as its members, initiated World Hypertension Day in 2005. Hypertension has no symptoms and could go unnoticed for years. Blood pressure is the force exerted by circulating blood against the walls of the blood vessels in the body. Hypertension occurs when blood pressure remains too high for an extended period. To combat this, people should regularly check their blood pressure for a longer lifespan.

In the blood pressure measurement camp that the community club was holding, the blood pressure of over 60 people was measured and recorded successfully. All the people were briefed about the importance of measuring hypertension and various interesting facts about the same through multiple charts, models, etc., made by the community club students.
