АSSESMENT OF PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN ABOUT TOTAL CARDIOVASCULAR RISK

In practical medicine, the assessment of total cardiovascular risk (CVR) plays an important role in identifying a high-risk group among “asymptomatic” patients, that is, individuals without clinical manifestations of atherosclerosis. Currently, the most famous are the American Framingham Total Coronary Risk Scale, as well as the European SCORE (Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation) scale, which predicts the 10-year fatal risk of all CVDs for European countries with low and high risk. The survey involved 66 doctors from various regions of Uzbekistan. In the course of questioning the participants, a high level of awareness of doctors was determined regarding the assessment of total CVR using the European SCORE scale. Only 10% of respondents do not use it in their practical work or are not familiar with it.
