The effect of patient's gender on the results of managing cardiovascular risk factors using specialized software

Abstract

Objectives to assess the effect of the gender of patients on the severity of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases using specialized software.
 Material and methods. In order to identify and correct the severity of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases in the population, in 2018-2019, the data of residents of the Republic of Tatarstan were registered in specialized software. The severity of risk factors was assessed before the start of the study and after one year. The research included two groups of persons: men and women.
 Results. In 2018, the program "Cardiovascular Risk Management" had registered the data of 32,746 residents of the Republic of Tatarstan aged from 18 to 80 years. The risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases were identified in 22,999 individuals, where there were 7,188 men and 15,712 women. The patient's data included gender, age, history of coronary artery disease, smoking, physical activity, blood pressure, the levels of cholesterol, glucose and blood creatinine. The data on the severity of the risk factors in both groups were statistically processed. Based on the data obtained, the supervised persons received recommendations for correcting their lifestyle. In 2019, an assessment of the severity of risk factors was carried out in persons included in the system in 2018.
 Conclusion. We found a statistically significant difference in the results of managing risk factors in men and women. The software "Management of cardiovascular risks" is recognized as an effective tool for managing risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases and reducing mortality from diseases of the circulatory system.
