CENTIMETRY IN PATIENTS WITH CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES

Krasimira Zlatkova, Yuliyan Zlatkov

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease affects those affected negatively. In our country, two out of every three people die from cardiovascular diseases.. Centimetry is an easily applicable method of measurement. The relationship between certain higher values measured by centimeter and the presence of diseases of the cardiovascular system has been established. The aim of this report is to present the measured values by centimeter in patients after coronary artery stent insertion and to analyze the results comparing them with literature data.

Materials and methods. We have used a centimeter. We measured the waist and hip circumferences as well as the height of the patients. Based on the obtained values in cm, we calculated the ratios: waist/hip, waist/height and abdominal volume index (AVI).

Results and discussion. We used the statistical package Graph Pad Prism 3.0 for the processing of results. We have calculated the mean and standard deviation for the studied indicators. We studied 30 patients after insertion of the coronary arteries. The mean values of the hip measurement were 113.05±8.19 cm. The mean values of the waist measurement were 96.67±8.47 cm. The mean waist/hip
ratio was 0.86±0.04. The mean waist/height ratio was 0.56±0.04. The calculated mean abdominal volume index (AVI) values were 18.85 ±3.19.

Conclusion. Circulation calculations and the ratios derived from them can be used to assess the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Timely detection of elevated values would allow adequate lifestyle modification measures to be taken to counteract the risk of cardiovascular disease development.
