Résumé

Asymptomatic high-risk individuals represent one of the highest priorities of cardiovascular prevention, in clinical practice frequently overlooked. We analyzed the real adherence to recommended principles of cardiovascular prevention in primary care subjects. Our analysis is based on random general population sample, examined in the frame of post-MONICA survey in 2016/17. Each subject was categorized with regard to its individual cardiovascular risk (based on Sixth Joint European Guidelines) and the real adherence to recommended targets was ascertained. In total 898 subjects aged 25-75 years (47% males) were analyzed. Of them, 16.7% were classified into “very high risk“ and 36.8% into “high risk“ subgroup; remaining 46.5% were only at moderate or low risk. Regarding adherence to recommended principles, in “very high risk“ category only 58.7% abstain from any form of tobacco, 38% reported appropriate physical activity (150 minutes of at least moderate activity weekly), 16.7% had recommended body constitution (BMI 20-25 kg/m2 ), 39.3% appropriate blood pressure (.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Asymptomatic high-risk individuals represent one of the highest priorities of cardiovascular prevention, in clinical practice frequently overlooked. We analyzed the real adherence to recommended principles of cardiovascular prevention in primary care subjects.
METHODS METHODS
Our analysis is based on random general population sample, examined in the frame of post-MONICA survey in 2016/17. Each subject was categorized with regard to its individual cardiovascular risk (based on Sixth Joint European Guidelines) and the real adherence to recommended targets was ascertained.
RESULTS RESULTS
In total 898 subjects aged 25-75 years (47% males) were analyzed. Of them, 16.7% were classified into “very high risk“ and 36.8% into “high risk“ subgroup; remaining 46.5% were only at moderate or low risk. Regarding adherence to recommended principles, in “very high risk“ category only 58.7% abstain from any form of tobacco, 38% reported appropriate physical activity (150 minutes of at least moderate activity weekly), 16.7% had recommended body constitution (BMI 20-25 kg/m2 ), 39.3% appropriate blood pressure (.
