    We developed a cardiovascular system model to educate patients on hypertension, its risks, and treatments. This visual and tactile tool aids healthcare providers in explaining complex cardiovascular concepts simply.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Physiology
    • Medical Education Technology

    Background:

    • Hypertension management requires effective patient education.
    • Abstract cardiovascular principles are challenging for patients to grasp.
    • Visual and interactive tools can improve patient understanding.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel cardiovascular system model for patient education.
    • To demonstrate the model's utility in explaining hypertension.
    • To provide a framework for healthcare providers to educate hypertensive patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a physical model of the cardiovascular system.
    • Integration of visual, auditory, and tactile elements.
    • Creation of an educational outline for healthcare providers.

    Main Results:

    • The model facilitates understanding of cardiovascular function.
    • Graphic representations enhance patient comprehension of hypertension.
    • The educational outline provides a structured approach for providers.

    Conclusions:

    • The cardiovascular model is an effective tool for patient education on hypertension.
    • Interactive models improve the explanation of complex physiological concepts.
    • Standardized educational approaches enhance patient engagement and adherence.
