摘要

心血管疾病(CVD)是南非共和国(RSA)非传染性疾病(NCDs)的首要死因,超过了所有癌症的总和。据估计,该疾病每天造成 215 人死亡,死亡率为 17.3%。该疾病的常见风险因素包括高血压、糖尿病、高胆固醇血症、超重和肥胖、吸烟和压力。与艾滋病毒/艾滋病和结核病等众所周知的疾病相反,心血管疾病并没有得到足够的宣传和民众的关注。这表明普通民众对该疾病缺乏认识和关注,导致该疾病持续成为南非医疗保健系统的负担。本研究的目的是研究心血管疾病的病因和分类,确定心血管疾病的风险因素,并探讨预防和控制该疾病的策略。

Raising awareness of cardiovascular diseases: A silent killer in South Africa
Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) in the Republic of South Africa (RSA), surpassing all cancers combined. It is estimated that the disease is responsible for 215 deaths daily, with a 17.3% death rate. Common risk factors for the disease include hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesteremia, overweight and obesity, smoking, and stress. Contrary to well-known diseases like HIV/AIDS and TB, CVD does not enjoy enough publicity and attention from the population. This indicates a lack of awareness and concern for the disease among the general people, resulting in the disease being a continued burden on the healthcare system of RSA. The objective of this study was to examine the aetiology and classifications of CVD, identify cardiovascular risk factors, and explore strategies for preventing and managing the condition.
