Coronary heart disease, why is the United States well controlled?

Recently, the United States and China have successively released the latest statistical data on cardiovascular disease. China's latest research report shows that of the 290 million cardiovascular patients in China, 2 out of 5 deaths are due to cardiovascular disease, and rural areas The mortality rate of cardiovascular disease in the region is higher than that in urban areas, and data from the American Heart Association shows that the mortality rate of coronary heart disease in the United States dropped by 34.4% in 10 years. However, the incidence of hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes in the United States is also high in China. .

Gao Jie, deputy chief physician of the Department of Cardiology at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University, told Life Times that both countries have recognized hypertension. Dyslipidemia and diabetes are risk factors for cardiovascular disease, but they lead to unhealthy lifestyles that lead to cardiovascular risk. On the other hand, China’s control is not very good. For example, the smoking rate is high in China, with 52.1% of males. The smoking rate among females has also increased. The average smoker smokes 15.2 cigarettes per day. The US is doing better in tobacco control. The smoking rate is only 15%; China's obesity rate is only 1/3 of the United States, but now the obesity rate of children and adolescents in our country is 73 times that of 30 years ago; the American dietary structure has been improved, the whole grain, vegetables and fruits Compared with the increase in imports, China’s residents’ intake of fat and cholesterol is still high, and fruits and vegetables are relatively inadequate. In terms of sports, China and the United States are relatively lacking, and the situation is similar.

In the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, the United States is advanced in the management of patients' health. In the United States, patients with cardiovascular diseases have very short hospital stay. After discharge, they will still receive follow-up medical service management until they return to normal life. State. Cardiac rehabilitation is the treatment after discharge. It is very important to ensure the patient's treatment effect and reduce the rate of re-hospitalization and mortality. This is very worth learning.

This shows that China's cardiovascular disease prevention and control situation is still grim. Public health education and prevention and control of the community is the key to prevention and control, in particular, should change the food intake is not balanced, insufficient intake of fruits and vegetables, too much salt and other issues.
