印度正在经历流行病学转变，正处于心血管疾病流行的边缘。特定原因死亡率数据表明，心血管疾病已经是导致死亡的一个重要因素。人口统计预测表明，随着预期寿命的延长和不断增长的人口年龄结构的变化，心血管疾病死亡率大幅上升。城市地区的调查表明，冠状动脉危险因素已经普遍存在，随着社会经济的发展，需要采取紧急行动以防止其进一步上升。从多个地区获取流行病学数据对于规划、启动和监测公共卫生行动至关重要。
India is undergoing an epidemiological transition and is on the threshold of an epidemic of cardiovascular disease. Cause-specific mortality data indicate that cardiovascular disease is already an important contributor to mortality. Demographic projections suggest a major increase in cardiovascular disease mortality as life expectancy increases and the age structure of the growing population changes. Surveys in urban areas suggest that coronary risk factors are already widespread and that urgent action is needed to prevent a further rise as socioeconomic development proceeds. It is vital to obtain epidemiological data from several regions in order to plan, initiate and monitor public health action.
