Abstract
Position of the problem: The increasing incidence of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease in Morocco represents a real public health problem and generates an immense challenge to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Primary Objective: Establish the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors among operated coronary patients in order to allow an analysis of the field exposed to a high cardiovascular risk. Patients and Methods: We carried out a retrospective study on a series of 1009 cases of the operated coronary patients at Cardiovascular Surgery Service "B" at Ibn Sina Hospital in Rabat from 2001 to 2016. Results: Our sample consists of 793 men and 216 women, whose mean age was 60, 99 ± 8,4. The prevalence of HTA: 52 %; diabetes: 51,8 %; smoking : 49% ; dyslipidemia: 25% ; abdominal obesity : 6 %; metabolic syndrome according to the NCEP ATP III criteria : 5 % ; stress: 1%; depression: 0,4%; heredity: 4%. The results are presented and discussed. The ejection fraction, coronary angiography results and coronary artery bypass grafting are studied. Furthermore, many associations have been established and discussed. Conclusion: The growing incidence of coronary artery disease in our country has prompted us to develop this work, which had a high prevalence of hypertension, diabetes and smoking. This situation requires the implementation of a strategy for reduction and the control of cardiovascular risk factors, and efficient and early management logistics.
