Answer to Question 1
About 30 percent of all deaths in the United States are attributable to cardiovascular diseases, the most prevalent degenerative condition in the United States. More than a third of the adult population has some form of these diseases of the heart and blood vessels. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 60 percent of deaths from heart disease are sudden and unexpected, with no previous symptoms of the disease. Almost half of these deaths occur outside of the hospital, most likely because the individuals failed to recognize early warning symptoms of a heart attack.
Some examples of CVD are coronary heart disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, congenital heart disease, rheumatic heart disease, atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, and congestive heart failure. According to CDC estimates, if all deaths from major types of CVD were eliminated, life expectancy in the United States would increase by about seven years.
