To create awareness of cardiovascular health status by screening for cardiovascular risk factors, and thereby motivate people to improve their life style habits. This was carried out in form of a project within the framework of the government prevention programme "A Heart for Vienna" focussing on urban blue-collar workers, a population at greatest risk for developing cardiovascular disease.
The prevalence of hypertension, overweight, obesity, abdominal obesity and smoking were 29.7 %, 62.4 %, 16.4 %, 29.3 %, and 49.8 %, respectively. 87.6 % presented at least one of the screened cardiac risk factors. The prevalence of hypertension, overweight, obesity and abdominal obesity increased with age. Hypertension, overweight and abdominal obesity were significantly more prevalent among unskilled compared to skilled male bluecollar workers. The prevalence of obesity and abdominal obesity was more than 1.5 times higher among female compared to male blue-collar workers.
Blue-collar workers represent a population where health promotion and prevention of cardiovascular disease should have high priority. Within the bluecollar group itself the cardiovascular risk profile worsened with reduction in skill level.
通过筛查心血管危险因素,提高对心血管健康状况的认识,从而激励人们改善生活方式习惯。这是以一个项目的形式在政府预防计划“为维也纳献一颗心”的框架内开展的,该计划聚焦城市蓝领工人,这是患心血管疾病风险最高的人群。
高血压、超重、肥胖、腹型肥胖和吸烟的患病率分别为29.7%、62.4%、16.4%、29.3%和49.8%。87.6%的人至少存在一种筛查出的心脏危险因素。高血压、超重、肥胖和腹型肥胖的患病率随年龄增长而升高。与熟练男性蓝领工人相比,非熟练男性蓝领工人中高血压、超重和腹型肥胖的患病率显著更高。与男性蓝领工人相比,女性蓝领工人中肥胖和腹型肥胖的患病率高出1.5倍以上。
蓝领工人是一个健康促进和心血管疾病预防应高度优先关注的人群。在蓝领群体内部,心血管风险状况随着技能水平的降低而恶化。
