Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are common in the elderly, especially those over 50 years old. The disease is characterized by high morbidity, high mortality and high disability rate, which has caused a great burden to China. Although the current treatment methods have been improved, more than 50% of survivors are still unable to take care of themselves due to the acute onset of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

The "Report" shows that the death of cardiovascular disease accounts for more than 40% of the death of residents, ranking first, higher than tumors and other diseases. Not only that, the cardiovascular death rate of rural residents has increased significantly in recent years, and the cardiovascular death rate in rural areas is consistently higher than that in urban areas.

With the development of social economy and profound changes in people's lifestyles, especially the aging of the population and the acceleration of urbanization, the prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors in China is obvious, resulting in a continuous increase in the number of people with cardiovascular disease.
