Cardiovascular diseases are the serious preventable cause of morbidity and mortality
in India. It is the major cause of disability and premature death throughout the world.
The objectives of the study were to assess the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases
among adults and to find out the association between level of risk of developing
cardiovascular diseases with demographic variables. A quantitative research approach
was used for the study. A sample of 80 adults was selected using non probability
purposive sampling technique. The study was conducted among adults attending the
OPDs of selected hospital, Kozhencherry. The risk factors of developing
cardiovascular diseases are assessed using standardized Framingham tool and
demographic variables. Distribution of 10 year risk score of developing
cardiovascular diseases among adults revealed that 42.5% of samples are having low
risk, 36.25% of samples are having moderate risk and 21.25% of samples are having
high risk to develop cardiovascular diseases. This study recommends conducting further risk
assessment program to improve preventive measures against cardiovascular diseases.
