Assessing the Clinical Presentation of Coronary Artery Disease in Rural Population of Wardha District

Noncommunicable illnesses account for three-fifths of all fatalities in India, with coronary heart disease (CHD) ranking among the leading causes. In India, there are only a few studies available that use a pragmatic method to identify verified CHD. This study seeks to identify the prevalence of verified CHD and associated risk factors in the rural community. Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the main cause of death among people in India, and the risk factors (tobacco, hypertension, diabetes, overweight, and obesity) are widespread. Most risk-factor surveys have targeted young and middle-aged adults. We assessed the prevalence of risk factors for CVD among the elderly.

The presence of atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries is what defines Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Coronary artery disease is the largest cause of death and loss of Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) globally. Low and middle-income nations carry a disproportionate part of this burden, accounting for almost 7 million fatalities and 129 million DALYs annually.Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)/Ischaemic Heart Disease (IHD) is diagnosed with stable angina and Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) almost always appears as a symptom, such as unstable angina or myocardial infarction.CAD accounted for 8.9 million fatalities and 164.0 million DALYs.

The chance of dying from CAD grows dramatically as one gets older, and systolic blood pressure is the most important modifiable risk factor, explaining some of the extra CAD hazards that come with age.
