Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2016 Update
Current Status of Cardiovascular Health in the United States (Chapter 2)
-
The concept of cardiovascular health represents a heightened focus for the AHA, with 3 central and novel emphases:
-
—An expanded focus on not only CVD prevention but also promotion of positive cardiovascular health, in addition to the treatment of established CVD
-
—The prioritization of both health behaviors (healthy diet pattern, appropriate energy balance, PA, and nonsmoking) and health factors (optimal blood lipids, blood pressure, glucose levels) throughout the lifespan as primary goals unto themselves
-
—Population-level health promotion strategies to shift the majority of the public toward greater cardiovascular health, in addition to targeting those individuals at greatest CVD risk, because CVD occurs at all risk levels across the population and because healthy lifestyles are uncommon throughout the US population.Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2015 Update
