Prediction of the Risks of Cardiovascular Mortality

Jan Evangelista Purkyne University200 enrolled

Overview

Monitoring risks of cardiovascular diseases in working population (18 - 65 years old) by monitoring their BMI, ankle-brachial index with pulse wave velocity, cholesterol and glycemia.

Monitoring working population in their workplace by measuring their ankle-brachial index with pulse wave velocity, BMI, glycemia and cholesterol. Putting acquired data in correlation to their work habits, type of employment, work demands, job type, activity levels. Trying to find common predictors of cardiovascular disease. All assessed subjects must understand written and spoken Czech, must be employed in a company that consents with our data collections, must be older than 18 year old, doesn't have any bleeding disorder, doesn't have deep vein thrombosis (as it produces inaccurate data with ankle brachial index). Study will be conducted in Ustecky Region in the Czech Republic on approximately 200 subjects.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Detection of glycemia, HDL, LDL and triacylglyceride levels

Glycemia, HDL, LDL and triacylglyceride levels (mmol/l) will be measured from drops of blood by point-of-care analysers

Time frame: 5 minutes

Body composition

Using body composition scale the following markers will be counted: bone mass, body fat, muscle mass, water levels. All results will be in %

Time frame: 3 minutes

Ankle-brachial index

Ankle-brachial index (no unit) using ABI-system-100 will be counted from blood pressure measured in all four limbs (mmHg)

Time frame: 2 minutes

Ankle brachial pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and carotid femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV)

baPWV and cfPWV will be measure by ABI-system-100 (m/s)

Time frame: 2 minutes

Weight

measured by body composition scale (kg)

Time frame: 1 minute

Height

measured by tailor tape measure (m)

Time frame: 1 minute

Secondary Outcomes

BMI

BMI (kg/m\^2) will be counted from weight (kg) and height (m)

Time frame: 2 minutes
