    ArmInfo. Yerevan is hosting the Euro-Caucasian Forum of Cardiologists
    on October 29-30.

    The Forum is organized by the Diaspora Ministry and Armenia-France
    Health Action organization under aegis of Prime Minister of Armenia
    Tigran Sargsyan.

    The Diaspora Ministry press-service reported that nearly one hundred of
    cardiologists from Russia, France, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Israel,
    Lebanon and Armenia are participating in the event. The two-day forum
    will consider a number of issues related to cooperation and exchange
    of experience between the cardiologists of Armenia and Diaspora,
    development of health protection in the country and retraining of
    specialists. Karlen Admyan, Head of the Association of Cardiologists
    of Armenia, says 53-54% is the share of cardiovascular disease (CVE)
    in the total mortality. He came out for raising this problem at the
    political, for it will be impossible to reduce these diseases without
    relevant national programs. Among methods to prevent CVE, Adamyan
    highlighted introduction of up-to-date technologies. The Association
    is currently surveying usage of up-to-date technologies of treatment
    in Armenia. He highlighted that Armenian cardiologists have been
    actively participating in international conference for the last 20
    years. They made 54 reports during European Congress of Cardiologists,
    which is several dozens of times more than indicators in the region.

    Nearly 17 million people die of CVE in the world every year. Research
    shows that a long-lasting stress may shorten life by 3-4 years,
    smoking - by 10 years, fatness - 9 years and excess weight -by 3
    years. Healthy way of life is the best method to reduce CVE risk.
