Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the major cause of sudden death amongst adults throughout the globe. Though the prevalence of CHD is increasing steadily all over, CHD amongst Indians is peculiar in the sense that it is more prevalent, more severe and appears at younger age. Development of CHD depends upon the status of various coronary risk factors in one's body. It has been observed that to measure the impact of risk factors for the cardiac health of a person, collective impact of all the known risk factors taken together should be calculated rather than individual risk factors. DEBEL (Defence Bio-Engineering and Electro-Medical Laboratory) is developing a cardiac risk analyser to calculate the absolute coronary risk of an individual in next 2,5 or 10 years and help in managing his coronary risk status. |
