“…A systematic review of studies on the prevalence, risk factors, treatments, and outcomes of CAD in Indians showed that CAD prevalence was 2.5%-12.6% in urban areas and 1.4%-4.6% in rural areas with overall prevalence of HTN between 13.1 and 36.9% in these patients. [7] The prevalence of HTN among patients with ST-elevation MI (STEMI) is 65.2% and among those with non-STEMI (NSTEMI) is 79.2% according to data from ACTION registry and National CV Data Registry with a gradual increase in the prevalence of ACS observed with advancing age.
