Abstract

Over the past decade, substantial progress has been made in China in improving health-care infrastructure and enacting national policies focused on the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and other non-communicable chronic diseases. Nevertheless, a considerable gap remains between the national goals for cardiovascular health and the burden of CVD in the Chinese population. The rapid advances in digital health-care platforms and the increasing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies across various health-care sectors underscore the potential for these innovative approaches to address existing challenges in CVD prevention. In this Review, we summarize the major challenges in implementing preventative strategies and highlight the core obstacles to achieving the national goals for cardiovascular health in China. Furthermore, we discuss the potential value of, and the challenges associated with, digital health-care and AI technology in the implementation of preventative strategies in China and other countries with similar needs.

中国心血管疾病预防：人工智能数字健康时代的挑战与机遇

在过去十年中，中国在改善保健基础设施和制定以预防心血管疾病和其他非传染性慢性病为重点的国家政策方面取得了重大进展。然而，国家心血管健康目标与中国人口心血管疾病负担之间仍有相当大的差距。数字卫生保健平台的快速发展和各个卫生保健部门越来越多地采用人工智能（AI）技术，突显了这些创新方法在应对心血管疾病预防方面现有挑战方面的潜力。在这篇综述中，我们总结了实施预防策略的主要挑战，并强调了实现中国心血管健康国家目标的核心障碍。此外，我们还讨论了数字医疗保健和人工智能技术在中国和其他有类似需求的国家实施预防战略时的潜在价值和相关挑战。
