Cardiac surgery in romania 1 Nov 2012

According to data provided by the OMS, in 2012, Romania has one of the highest mortality rates due to cardiovascular disease, with a percentage of 61% of the total deaths, almost double the European Union (37%).

The main causes identified in the cases of cardiovascular disease are unhealthy diet, physical inactivity and smoking. The advice that doctors give us is to keep as much as possible a normal weight for our age and avoid eating foods high in fat, salt, sugar and to guard against possible vices such as smoking.

Another reason why the mortality rate is so high in Romania in people with heart disease is the lack of equipment performance state hospitals to allow doctors to perform life-saving interventions.
