About This App

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a growing public health problem in Ghana and other African countries. Strokes and other CVDs have become a leading cause of death due to increasing risk factors such as hypertension. According to publicly available medical research, ischaemic heart disease was the fourth leading cause of death in Ghana in 2016. The prevalence of hypertension, a major risk factor for CVDs, is increasing rapidly due to rising life expectancy and increasing prevalence of contributing factors such as overweight/obesity.

Educational Purpose

The content is designed to serve as an educational reference for healthcare workers and students studying cardiovascular diseases. Early diagnosis and adequate management of risk factors can reduce the consequences of CVDs. This app compiles educational information that can be useful at various levels of healthcare education and training.
