February recognises Heart Month, and serves as a reminder to prioritize heart-healthy lifestyles, learn about different conditions, and support those affected by heart rhythm disorders.
The Know Your Pulse (KYP) program promotes the need for us to be aware of our pulse and for the need to include routine manual pulse checks. Know your pulse events can be held anywhere in the world including: hospitals, shopping malls, parks and schools. If pulse checks were routine, thousands of lives, and thousands of debilitating strokes, could be saved every year.
