MEASURING WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE:
A SIMPLE AND CRUCIAL FIRST STEP TOWARDS TACKLING
HEART DISEASE
Results from a 27 country survey reveal that six out of ten physicians recognise abdominal fat
as a significant risk factor for heart disease.However,only a minority of the public are aware
of the waist size that puts them at risk for heart disease and less than one in five people can
expect to have their waist circumference measured by their doctor.
The survey,called Shape of the Nations,was conducted in 27 countries during July 2005
amongst the general public,people identified as at risk for heart disease,as well as primary
care physicians,to assess knowledge and understanding of the increased risk of heart disease
posed by excess abdominal fat.It was conducted to coincide with World Heart Day on 25tth
September 2005.Under this year’s theme,‘Healthy Weight,Healthy Shape’,World Heart Day
activities will be run by the World Heart Federation’s members in 100 countries to encourage
the world's population to lead a healthier lifestyle by increasing physical activity and further
reducing the risk of heart disease through healthy nutrition,weight control and smoke-free
living.
“The Shape of the Nations survey findings point to the need for more education and stronger
action to safeguard people from the risk of heart disease,which is the leading single greatest
cause of death worldwide,” said Professor Sidney Smith,Chairman of the Scientific Advisory
Board for the World Heart Federation.
“Waist circumference is a very important measure of cardiovascular risk,for example we know
that patients with increasing abdominal obesity,when occurring with other cardiovascular risk
factors
including dyslipidaemia,hypertension and raised glucose levels,are at risk of heart
disease.Therefore,measuring waist circumference is an easy,low cost indicator that should be
added to measurements of other cardiovascular risk factors,such as blood pressure,lipid
levels and blood glucose.Unfortunately,the results show that the public does not know about
this indicator,or that waist circumference is a cardiovascular risk measure,” added Professor
Sidney Smith.
