MANILA, Philippines - Recent data from the National Statistics
Office (NSO) showed that five out of 10 deaths in the country were of
cardiovascular causes.
The NSO reported that 100,908 people died of heart diseases in 2009. This accounted for 21 percent of all deaths in the country.
It was followed by cerebrovascular disease, which claimed 56,670
lives in the same year. It accounted for 11.8 percent of all deaths in
2009.
Malignant neoplasm (cancer), pneumonia and tuberculosis rounded up the top five leading causes of death in the country.
"Within three years (2007-2009), the top five causes of deaths
remained on their posts and proved to be fatal among other causes of
deaths," the NSO said.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that an estimated 17
million people die of cardiovascular diseases every year. Most of these
were heart attacks and strokes.
"A substantial number of these deaths can be attributed to tobacco
smoking, which increases the risk of dying from coronary heart disease
and cerebrovascular disease 2–3 fold. Physical inactivity and unhealthy
diet are other main risk factors which increase individual risks to
cardiovascular diseases," the WHO said.
The NSO also reported that most females die in their older age compared to their male counterparts.
"It was noted that the most number of deaths was at the age of 80
and over with 85,705 or 17.8 percent. From these, 59.6 percent (51,074)
were females while the remaining 40 percent (34,631) were males," the
NSO said.
The age group 10 to 14 had the least number of deaths, accounting for only 1 percent of all total deaths.
"It has been observed that as the age increases, the rate of dying
also increasing. From age group 10 onwards it shows that the number of
deaths continuously increase though a slight decrease were seen at ages
75-79 then it went up again at age 80 and over," the NSO said.
Deaths in 2009 reached 480,820, which was 4.2 percent higher than the previous year.
The most number of deaths in the country occurred in the National
Capital Region, which accounted for 75,019 or 15.6 percent of all deaths
in the country

Another Way is By Taking Cardio Pulse Test
Cardio Pulse is a simple, non-invasive and painless screening device
that measures pulse waveform for 3 minutes to reveal early warning signs
of Cardiovascular Disease and Peripherial Vascular Disease. It measures
your physical and mental stress as well as your level of resistance to
stress to let you know if you need to rest and relax or engage in
exercise or other physical activities. It also measures your Cardio
Score to illustrate your cardio age or plaque build up in your arteries.
