  1. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention HEART DISEASE Risk Factors & Prevention Kimberly A. Rogers, RN June 2013

  2. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Section I: U.S. Disease Statistics

  3. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention U.S. Disease Statistics 25% of all deaths in the U.S. for all ethnic groups are caused by heart disease 600,000 people in the U.S. die each year of heart disease Over ½ of all heart disease deaths in the U.S. annually (385,000) are caused by coronary heart disease (Pasco County Population is 468,000) There are 935,000 heart attacks each year in the U.S. Coronary heart disease costs the U.S. economy $1.89 billion each year (Centers for Disease Control, 2013)

  4. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Section II: Pasco County Statistics Demographic Summary Epidemiological &Statistical Data Health Status

  5. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Pasco County Demographics Summary Pasco County is predominantly white, and non-Hispanic, as whites make up 90% of the population and people who identify themselves as Hispanic are 12% of the Pasco population, versus 22% statewide Pasco County high school diploma attainment is similar to the statewide rate Pasco County has a lower percentage of college degreed individuals than the state of Florida as a whole (U.S. Census Bureau, 2010)

  6. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Deaths per 100,000 Population Three-year Rolling Average Epidemiological & Statistical Data: Pasco County vs. State of Florida Coronary Disease Death Rates (Florida Charts.com, 2013)

  7. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Epidemiological & Statistical Data Summary Hospitalizations and deaths from Coronary Heart Disease have dropped in Pasco County and statewide since the early 1990’s The rate of deaths from Coronary Heart Disease is still higher in Pasco County than the state as a whole for both males and females The rate of deaths from Coronary Heart Disease is higher for men than women, in Pasco County and statewide

  8. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Health Status: Percentage of People with Cardiovascular Disease (Florida Department of Health, 2013)

  9. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Health Status: Percentage of Adults Who Smoke, Pasco County vs. Florida Statewide (Floridacharts.com, 2013)

  10. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Health Status: Percentage of AdultsWho Are Overweight or Obese in Pasco County vs. Florida Statewide (Floridacharts.com, 2013)

  11. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Health Status: Percentage of Adults with High Cholesterol in Pasco County vs. Florida Statewide (Floridacharts.com, 2013)

  12. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Health Status: Percentage of Adults with Hypertension in Pasco County in vs. Florida Statewide (Floridacharts.com, 2013)

  13. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Health Status Summary Adults in Pasco County are more likely to smoke than their peers statewide Adults in Pasco County are more likely to be overweight or obese than their peers statewide Adults in Pasco County have similar incidence of high cholesterol as compared to their statewide peers Adults in Pasco County are more likely to have high blood pressure than their statewide counterparts The health status data summarized above all represent known risk factors for coronary artery disease (American Heart Association, 2013)

  14. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Section III: Heart Disease Risk Factors

  15. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Non-Modifiable Heart Disease Risk Factors Age (Increased Risk Above 65 Years of Age) Gender (Increased Risk for Males) Heredity (Increased Risk for African Americans, Mexican Americans, Native Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Some Asian Americans) (American Heart Association, 2013)

  16. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Modifiable Heart Disease Risk Factors Tobacco Smoke (Increases 2X – 4X above non-smokers) Second-hand Smoke Also Increases Risk High Blood Cholesterol Total Cholesterol Should be <200 mg/dL LDL Should be 100 mg/dL – 160 mg/dL depending on other risk factors High Blood Pressure (American Heart Association, 2013)

  17. Heart Disease Risk Factors & Prevention Modifiable Heart Disease Risk Factors (cont’) Physical Inactivity Overweight & Obesity Diabetes Stress Alcohol Consumption Diet/Nutrition (American Heart Association, 2013)

  18. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Section IV: Heart Disease Characteristics & Symptoms

  19. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Coronary Artery Disease & Anatomy (Drchandler.com, 2005)

  20. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Coronary Artery Disease Progression (Bean et al, 2006)

  21. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Signs & Symptoms of Coronary Heart Disease Chest Pain (squeezing, pressure, or heaviness) Pain in Shoulders, Arms, Neck, Jaw, or Back Persistent Indigestion or Nausea Fatigue and Weakness Shortness of Breath Sweating Lightheadedness (American Heart Association, 2013)

  22. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Signs & Symptoms of CoronaryHeart Disease in Diabetics Diabetic Nerve Damage Can Interfere with Pain Signals in the Body Diabetics Can Have Some or All of the Typical Symptoms Some Diabetics May Have a Heart Attack without Symptoms When in Doubt, Always Call 9-1-1 (National Institutes of Health, 2011)

  23. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Differences in Signs & Symptoms of CoronaryHeart Disease in Women Women May Not Have Typical Symptoms Signs Can Be Subtle May Perceive as Flu-like Symptoms May Have Shortness of Breath without Chest Pain May Have Back Pain or Pressure May Have Dizziness, Light-headedness, or Fainting (American Heart Association, 2013)

  24. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Related Conditions Resulting from Coronary Heart Disease Congestive Heart Failure Loss of Blood Pumping Ability Chronic, Progressive Condition Cardiomyopathy (Weakened Heart Muscle) Heart Rhythm Conditions Bradycardia Heart Blocks Tachycardias Atrial Fibrillation (American Heart Association, 2013)

  25. Heart Disease • Risk Factors & Prevention Signs & Symptoms of Congestive Heart Failure Persistent Shortness of Breath, Coughing, Wheezing (without lung disease) Excess Fluid Build-up in Tissues Fatigue Lack of Appetite Impaired Thinking Increased Heart Rate (American Heart Association, 2013)
