Cardiovascular diseases are an important and increasing cause of death in many countries in the Asia-Pacific Region. Formal demonstration programs for the prevention of cardiovascular disease are few in number and not likely to be widely used in the future. Prevention programs focused on key risk factors are widely used in the Region and have been successful. Smoking prevention remains a high priority for all countries in the Region.
在亚太地区的许多国家，心血管疾病是一个重要且日益严重的死亡原因。预防心血管疾病的正式示范项目数量很少，未来不太可能被广泛采用。关注关键风险因素的预防项目在该地区被广泛使用且已取得成功。预防吸烟仍是该地区所有国家的高度优先事项。
