Background & Aims: Due to the fact that cardiovascular diseases are one of the most important causes of death and disability worldwide, including Iran, and considering the importance of this issue, this study was conducted with the aim of investigating the distribution of heart disease risk factors and related factors in Urmia city.
Materials & Methods: The study sample included 10,000 people over 30 years of age in Urmia city, who were examined in terms of the risk of cardiovascular diseases in 2023. A multi-stage cluster sampling method was used to select the samples. Descriptive statistics, frequency, and percentage were used to describe the findings, and data analysis was performed using SPSS 22 software.
Results: The average age of the subjects studied was 49.19 ± 13.21 years. Furthermore, 91.2% had a risk level of less than 10%, 8.2% had a risk level between 10% and 20%, and 0.3% had a risk level between 20% and 30%, and 0.3% had a risk level above 30%. The average levels of cholesterol and FBS of risk assessed people were 177.72 ± 32.6 and 99.3 ± 32, respectively. The prevalence of people with high blood pressure was 17.2%, and diabetes was 12.2%. The average waist circumference and body mass index were calculated as 91.36 ± 10.7 and 27.8 ± 4.3, respectively.
Conclusion: In this study, people who were at risk of heart diseases were reported to be less than 10%, which requires the use of up-to-date and efficient models to accelerate appropriate intervention for high-risk people.
