Journal Title: International Journal of Biomedical Research - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 12

Abstract

Objectives: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. The aim of study was to identify the pattern of prevalence of risk factors in CAD patients presenting for surgical revascularization by coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in rural setup in India. Methods: Eleven risk factor in 206 patients coming for CABG in cardiothoracic departments of Jawaharlal Nehru medical college (JNMC), Sawangi (Meghe), Wardha, Maharashtra were analyzed in preanaesthetic checkup.. Results: Hypertension was most common modifiable risk factor for CAD coming for CABG.Prevalence of it was 62.62 % (129/206).while male sex (77.18%) was most common non modifiable risk factor for CAD coming for CABG. Prevalence of it was 77.18%(159/206).Prevalence of other risk factors were as dyslipidaemia 40.29 % (83/206), diabetes 20.87% (43/206), old age 52.42 % (108 /206) ,smoking 20.38% (42/206) , obesity 16.99% (36/206) , family history 29.61%. (57/206), Sedentariness 19.90 %( 41/206), alcohol 9.70 % (20/206) and diet 22.87 % (47/206). Conclusions: In this study, Hypertension is most common risk factor for CAD coming for CABG. The most common combination of factors seen together was diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidaemia and male gender.
