School of cardiovascular disease prevention

The paper considers actual theoretical and methodological problems of cardiovascular disease prevention at the level of primary health care, since the effectiveness of programs to reduce morbidity and mortality from CVDs is largely due to prevention. Prevention includes along with the fight against risk factors, also secondary prevention after myocardial infarction and cardiac surgery. The presentation is quite rigorous and at the same time accessible. All the main provisions are illustrated by a large number of examples. The book is intended for a wide range of readers interested in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
