Conclusions • CVD is the leading cause of death • Incidence increases with age • CVD >men; CHF equal; Stroke >women • Risk factors contribute to new events • explaining up to 85% of PAR for first MI • Improvements in Chol and HTN offset by worsening obesity and DM • Long way to go for Healthy People 2010 Goals • BP is poorly controlled relative to guidelines, especially among older women • HTN may explain up to 25% of new events
