Objective To investigate the risk factors of cardiovascular disease among elderly patients in Hangzhou and to assess the level of risk of cardiovascular events in 10 years, so as to provide a reliable basis for preventing, reducing and delaying the incidence of cardiovascular events among elderly patients. Methods From June 2015 to June 2016, we selected 8336 elderly patients with health check-up of medical examination center in two ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals by baseline survey. The Self-Designed Living Behavior Pattern Questionnaire was used to investigate the behavior pattern of living such as smoking. TheGuidelines for Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease by WHO/ISH was used to assess the risk of cardiovascular events in 10 years combined with physical examination data.Results Among 8336 elderly patients with health check-up, there were more than 46.34% of the elderly patients with incidence of cardiovascular events in 10 years for higher than 40%. There were statistical differences in levels of risk of cardiovascular events among patients with different sexes and ages (P<0.01), and male and the aged were the susceptible population. Among the risk factors of cardiovascular events, the abnormal rate of blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose was 72.75%, 67.11% and 39.71% respectively.Conclusions The level of risk of cardiovascular events in 10 years among elderly patients in Hangzhou is high. Prevention and intervention should be carried out aiming at susceptible population and risk factors.

The top 3 positive symptoms were hyperlipidemia, hyperplasia of mammary gland and thyroid nodules, accounted for 37. 54%, 37. 21% and 30. 16%, respectively. There were significant differences in the thyroid nodules, hyperplasia of mammary gland, overweight or obesity, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, abnormality of gall bladder and kidney in nurses with different age (P<0. 05). Conclusions The nursing staff′s attitude towards physical examination is not serious enough. The health condition of the staff is not optimistic.
