Indus Health Plus Abnormality Report
September 29 - World Heart Day
* 10 -15 % Rise in Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) Among Young Women in Bangalore
* Increase in CVD Cases Between the Age Brackets of 24-30 Years in Mumbai
* 35 % heart diseases case in New Delhi 35% of these have been observed in women
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), one of the most common non-communicable diseases, have become a major health concern in many developing countries including India.
About two-third of the global estimated 14.3 million annual cardiovascular disease deaths, occur in developing countries. This Sunday, September 29 is World Heart Day, a global initiative developed by the World Heart Federation to educate people around the world that heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. This year, in line with the theme, efforts are being made to raise awareness on prevention and control of heart disease among women and children.
In this context IndusHealth Plus released anabnormality report that revealed that a massive section of country’s population suffers cardio vascular diseases. In the southern cities like Bangalore, there is an alarming 10-15 % rise in cardiovascular disease (CVD) among young women, while women in Hyderabad, are prone to problems caused by lack of estrogen between the ages of 20 – 40. In Mumbai,there has been an increase in CVD cases between the age brackets of 24-30 years of which 58 % of the total cases were below 40 years of age and 30% were below 30 years.
Whereas, out of 11 % coronary heart diseases case in New Delhi 35 % of these have been observed in women. 23 % of corporate employees in New Delhi are suffering from CVD. Out of 55 per cent, under the age bracket of 20 to 29 years, 15-20% of them are females.
In the study, it was observed that women are more prone to cardiovascular diseases because of their drastic lifestyle changes. Insufficientexercise, lack of sleep, poor eating habits and stress are the leading contributing factors to CVD. One major challenge is that the symptoms for heart disease are different from men in women. The common signs are shortness of breath, chest pain, sweating, nausea, dizziness and fatigue, which often gets ignored.
Mr. Amol Naikawadi, Joint Managing Director, Indus Health Plus said, “As per a World Health Organisation (WHO) report, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) would be the largest cause of death and disability in India by 2020. Our Abnormality Report reiterates the same and reveals that cardiovascular diseases are not just prevalent in adult men, but are also taking a toll on women and children in India. The susceptibility ratio of men to women is 3:2 in younger age group, but after menopause the ratio becomes 1:1.”
“At Indus Health Plus, our goal on this ‘World Heart Day’ is to create awareness about preventive healthcare and making healthier choices for your family’s good health. As women mature and age, their health related needs change, as do their preventative care requirements. Besides lifestyle modification, preventive health check-ups are very useful in early detection of all types of illnesses and risk factors” Mr. Naikwadi added.
The loss of natural estrogen as women age may contribute to the higher risks of heart disease seen after menopause. The lack of physical activity during childhood usually continues into adulthood, thus contributing to the increased risk of heart disease. Every year, the lack of exercise contributes to three million deaths worldwide, which could have been prevented. Experts believethat an improvement in lifestyle that involves cutting down on consumption of alcohol, tobacco and greasy food is a must. In case diagnosed, cholesterol, hypertension should be brought under control. Be aware of your risks and get a preventive health check-up done. If you are over 40 or if you have high risk factors, such as family with a history of CVD and have not been tested, it is advised that you should get a check-up done. And above all, it is important to unwind and have a stress busting activity to reduce stress and have a healthy heart.
