Deaths from cardiovascular diseases account for more than 40% of deaths from diseases in the population, ranking first, higher than cancer and other diseases. Since 2004, the annual growth rate of hospitalization expenses of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases has been over 30%, which is much higher than the  growth of GDP (over 6%).The risk factors of cardiovascular diseases in China are generally exposed, and the mortality rate of cardiovascular diseases in rural areas is continuously higher than that in urban areas in recent years. The number of cardiovascular diseases will continue to increase rapidly over the next 10 years, especially in rural areas.
