Relevance. WHO estimates that 40% of adults worldwide develop hypertension and that it causes more than nine million annual deaths. Each year there are 16 million premature deaths before the age of 70 from heart and lung disease, stroke, cancer and diabetes. Among people who die because of circulatory disease (hereafter, CD), 80% die from a heart attack or stroke, most of which could have been prevented by controlling major risk factors through lifestyle interventions and the use of drug therapy, if necessary

The aim of the class is to raise the awareness of patients with arterial hypertension and coronary heart disease about their diseases, risk factors (RF), complications and prevention; the formation of motivation to improve health, adherence to treatment and compliance with doctor’s recommendations; formation of abilities and skills for self-monitoring of the state of health, first aid in cases of exacerbations and crises, as well as to reduce the adverse effects of behavioral risk factors on patients’ health (diet, physical activity, stress management, giving up bad habits).
