RESUMEN

El envejecimiento de la población, el consumo de tabaco, la dieta no saludable y la falta de actividad física, en el contexto de las altas prevalencias de hipertensión arterial, hipercolesterolemia y diabetes en las Américas, y con ello que las enfermedades cardiovasculares sean la primera causa de muerte. Además, las enfermedades cardiovasculares y sus factores de riesgo afectan de manera desproporcionada a las personas más pobres, contrarrestando los esfuerzos contra la pobreza y profundizando las disparidades en salud, entre otras. La crisis de las enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles ha alcanzado proporciones tan preocupantes que en septiembre de 2011 la Asamblea Generald e las Naciones Unidas convocó una Reunión de Alto Nivel para tratar el tema como un problema de desarrollo humano, con el objetivo de estimular un compromiso político y una acción concertada y global para contener la pandemia. Este artículo describe la carga de las ECV en las Américas y describe las prioridades de las estrategias y acciones en la región, y su relación con los resultados de la reunión de la ONU.
