Cardiovascular disease
• CVD still remains responsible for approx. a third of deaths in the UK each year.
• In 2011 there were estimated to be nearly 5 million people over the age of 16 living with CVD.
• There are millions of people with undiagnosed risk factors or conditions who are not being managed
• Significant numbers of patients are not receiving optimal management and appropriate ongoing support
• There is considerable variation in the quality of services and outcomes across the country
• Past gains will not be sustained
