Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are still the most common cause of death in the Czech Republic. Prevention of these diseases is a priority for our healthcare system. In 2002–2005, we carried out CVD prevention as part of preventive examinations for employees of the University Hospital Olomouc. This year, we decided to repeat this project after 20 years and, as part of the project, determine the risk of CVD according to the valid SCORE2 tables.
Matherials and methods: The population consists of 892 employees with an average age of 43.2 ± 11.28 years, 196 men with an average age of 42.2 ± 11.52 years and 696 women with an average age of 43.48 ± 11.2 years, who were examined from 1 January 2025. Employees completed an online questionnaire on basic risk factors (RF) of CVD. Basic RF of CVD were defined according to the European Society of Cardiology Recommended Practice for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases in Clinical Practice 2021.
Results: In the group, a total of 134 people (15.04%) were at medium risk and 23 people (2.58%) were at high risk. The incidence of the main risk factors in our group smoking – a total of 14.01% of people, of which 12.76% were men and 14.37% were women, compared to our research from 2002–2005, when 27.4% of employees smoked (29.2% of men and 27.1% of women). Treated hypertension occurs in our group in 138 employees (15.47%) – 40 men (20.41%) and 98 women (14.8%), which is less than in the Czech population. More than half of the group has a total cholesterol level above the norm (52.02%) and surprisingly more women (53.74%) than men (45.92%).
Conclusion: Considering the high incidence of RF in hospital workers, we believe that primary prevention of CVD should be includ ed in occupational health screenings for these professions. In the future, we would like to create a control group from the general population.
