Some key points covered in the document include: - The cardiovascular system includes the heart, arteries, veins and capillaries. Common cardiovascular disorders include hypertension, coronary artery disease, heart failure, angina, heart attack and stroke. - Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a major risk factor for heart disease. In Pakistan, it is estimated that 18% of adults have hypertension, but only 12.5% have it adequately controlled. - Other risk factors for heart disease include smoking, lack of exercise, poor diet, obesity and high cholesterol.
