心血管疾病（CVD）是全球死亡的主要原因和残疾的主要原因。在美国，CVD占2003年240万死亡人数的34.4%，仍然是健康差异和医疗保健费用上升的主要原因。2006年，心血管疾病造成的医疗保健支出和生产力损失超过4000亿美元。人口老龄化、肥胖流行、预防策略的使用不足以及风险因素的次优控制可能会加剧未来的CVD负担。加强对临床和社区指导方针的遵守，重新强调政策、环境和生活方式的改变，对于有效预防和控制艾滋病至关重要。
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and a major cause of disability worldwide. In the United States, CVD accounted for 34.4 percent of the 2.4 million deaths in 2003 and remain a major cause of health disparities and rising health care costs. In 2006, health care spending and lost productivity from CVD exceeded $400 billion. The aging population, obesity epidemic, underuse of prevention strategies, and suboptimal control of risk factors could exacerbate the future CVD burden. Increased adherence to clinical and community-level guidelines and renewed emphasis on policy, environmental, and lifestyle changes will be crucial for its effective prevention and control.
