What is Cardiovascular Disease Strategies in Nepal about?

This document summarizes the cardiovascular disease situation in Nepal. It finds that CVDs have become a major public health issue for Nepal as risk factors are highly prevalent. While exact burden is unknown, hospital data shows CVDs like coronary heart disease and rheumatic heart disease are common. The INTERHEART study in Nepal identified the same major risk factors for heart disease as other countries. A national NCD policy has been drafted but not yet endorsed to help address the growing CVD problem.
