Summary
In the European Union are vascular diseases the main cause of death, causing 1.9 millions of deaths per year. The highest mortality rates for cardiovascular diseases are found in Slovakia (data provided by National center health information, 2006). In 2007 died 29,289 (54.1%) persons from cardiovascular diseases, which means more than half of all deaths. From all men 47.8% died from cardiovascular diseases and from all women died 61.6% for cardiovascular disease. Coronary heart disease (55%) presents more than half causes of these deaths. Despite that mortality from cardiovascular disease has been continuously decreasing, in Central and East European countries it is still kept in high rates.
Key words:
prevalence – characteristic and prevention of vascular diseases
