Why Is It Important?

Over the last few decades great strides have been taken in reducing premature deaths due to Cardiovascular Disease in the United Kingdom, however, the problem still remains a significant cause of disability, death and health inequalities. The ageing population also presents challenges for Health and Social Care, since there are increasing numbers of people living with long term conditions. This is particularly relevant as the rate of Cardiovascular Disease increases with age.
