Satu Mare, Romania - On September 29, coinciding with World Heart Day, Dr. Lucaciu-Niculescu Alexandra, a specialist cardiologist from Clinica Korall Satu Mare, issued a public statement addressing the critical issue of cardiovascular diseases in Romania. According to national statistics, approximately one in two Romanians succumbs to cardiovascular disease, accounting for nearly 54% of all recorded deaths due to such conditions. This figure is almost double the average observed across the European Union. Dr. Lucaciu-Niculescu underscored the imperative of preventing premature deaths from cardiovascular diseases through targeted actions aimed at reducing risk factors. "It is crucial to identify individuals at cardiovascular risk to enable early treatment," she stated. She elaborated on common cardiovascular ailments, including arterial hypertension, acute coronary syndromes (such as acute myocardial infarction), chronic coronary syndromes like angina pectoris (ischemic cardiopathy), peripheral arterial diseases, and cerebrovascular accidents, all of which are often consequences of atherosclerosis. The cardiologist provided key recommendations for preventing cardiovascular diseases, advising against smoking and obesity, and advocating for the proper management of arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia. She also highlighted the importance of preventing a sedentary lifestyle and excessive stress. In observance of World Heart Day, Dr. Lucaciu-Niculescu extended an invitation to the public to schedule a comprehensive cardiological evaluation at Clinica Korall. This evaluation aims to identify individual cardiovascular risks and provide specific recommendations for prevention and management, ultimately working to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular deaths and morbidity.
