Proportion of Adults with at least One Risk Factor for Atherosclerosis
Prevalence of Risk Factors
• 90% of adults surveyed (20 yrs and above) have at least one risk factor
• With approximately 82 million Filipinos (54.4% 20 yrs and above), this translates to >44 million Filipinos
4. Smoking causes the most number of deaths.
3. Diabetes, Hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, Obesity and Smoking are enough to explain majority of CVD/CAD deaths in the country.
5. We need a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach to prevention.
1. Prevalence of disease obtained in percent.
2. 90% of adults have at least 1 risk factor.
MAIN Conclusions

• Predisposing situation, condition, trait
• Increases the likelihood of the medical condition
Major Risk Factors for Coronary Heart Disease
