Abstract
What is already known about this topic?The prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in China is high, while effective prevention and proper management is lacking. No available indicators were found before 2016 that could comprehensively evaluate different aspects of CVD prevention and treatment.What is added by this report?Constructed by combining data from multiple dimensions, China cardiovascular health index (CHI) has provided a practical indicator for each provincial-level administrative division (PLAD) to comprehensively understand its overall level and rankings of the specific dimensions of cardiovascular health.What are the implications for public health practice?The CHI will be beneficial for each PLAD to identify weak aspects in CVD control and prevention and redistribute resources to the most needed areas.
