Modelling the UK burden of cardiovascular disease to 2020
book
posted on 2009-01-01, 00:00 authored by S Capewell, Steven AllenderSteven Allender, J Critchley, F Lloyd-Williams, M O'Flaherty, M Rayner, P ScarboroughThis new research report demonstrates the scale of the burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) - shown to be large, costly, and increasing. Whilst mortality from CVD has fallen, an increasing population over the next decade will create further demands on services as the actual numbers of people living with CVD climb higher.
