  3. Overall Impact of Chronic Disease in the U.S. • By 2030, there will be about 71 million adult baby boomers who will have reached their 65th birthday. • At least 80% of older adults (age 65+) have at least one chronic disease; 50% have two. • Chronic diseases claim the lives of 1.7 million Americans each year—70% of all deaths. Heart disease, stroke, cancer, COPD, and diabetes account for two-thirds of all deaths.

  6. CVD and Non-preventable Risk Factors • Age- 65 and older • Minorities- Blacks, Native Americans • Gender- Men in terms of most risk factors; women in terms of stroke and arthritis • Persons with a family history of chronic disease (genetics) • Young children/adolescents- less physically active today and have higher rates of poor dietary intake; non-preventable because children do not often have control over their own physical activity or dietary intake- parents/other adults do!

CVD and Preventable Risk Factors • Smoking/tobacco use • Obesity- Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or greater • Overweight- BMI of 25 – 29.9 • Poor diet- eating less than five fruits for vegetables per day • Sedentary lifestyle- no leisure time physical activity within 30 days • High blood pressure and high cholesterol independent risk factors/conditions associated with type-2 diabetes and heart disease • And…lack of education on signs and symptoms of heart attack and stroke!!

  9. Diabetes as an Independent Risk Factor for CVD • Diabetes can lead to: coronary heart disease, stroke, peripheral artery disease, cardiomyopathy, and congestive heart failure. • People with diabetes are two to four times more likely to have a heart attack or stroke than people without diabetes. • People with diabetes are more likely to die from a second heart attack than people with CVD who do not suffer from diabetes. • A secondary diagnosis of CVD is found in about 75% of all diabetes-coded deaths.
