In his speech, Dr. Abdelmadjid Abderahim, Minister of Health and Prevention, indicated that this campaign is part of the policy of the transitional government aimed at fighting once morest the eradication of diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes and kidney disease.
The examinations carried out make it possible to obtain the results in 10 minutes, which ensures rapid treatment. All the necessary specialists were present, and in the event of discovery of a kidney, cardiovascular or neurological disease, the patients are sent to hospitals equipped to ensure their care.
The risk of developing non-communicable diseases varies continuously, and no age group is spared. For example, type 1 and 2 diabetes can strike at any time, and kidney failure can affect anyone.
This preventive examination makes it possible to detect untreated diseases before they become complicated, in particular degenerative diseases. Diabetes is a metabolic disease that can affect the whole organ system.
