Abstract

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the most prevalent non-communicable conditions that is a major public health problem worldwide. Objective: To critically appraise the cardiovascular disease picture in the United Kingdom with a view to providing an experience tool for low resource settings. Materials and methods: Through PubMed, Cochrane Libraries, Google Search, and Semantic Scholar, an electronic search of articles on maternal mortality and related current issues published between 1976 and 2023 was carried out. In order to narrow the search, this was combined with advanced search utilizing Boolean operators. The search was nevertheless limited to English-language articles only. Conclusion: Despite the appreciable degree of medical technology and the high calibre of medical treatment, CVD continues to be a major burden in the UK; with the burden, as well as its attendant morbidities and mortalities, more in the developing nations. The inclusion of cardiovascular disease management strategies in universal health coverage programs is key to reducing the prevalence of cardiovascular disease globally.
