Chinese Medical Doctor Association President Xisheng LENG emphasized that cardiovascular risk factors pose serious health threats to medical doctors, and work overload, overwhelming physical demand, psychological stress, smoking, and unhealthy lifestyle etc. contribute to the increase of risk.
To help physicians understand their health conditions and to provide adequate guidance, the Chinese Medical Doctor Association and Sanofi Aventis Inc. jointly launched the research project "Survey, Diagnosis and Treatment of Chinese Physicians' Hypertension". This project aims to survey nearly 50 hospitals and more than 10000 physicians and surgeons. Meanwhile, researchers will conduct follow-ups, offer self-care education to the medical doctors, and improve awareness, treatment, and control of cardiovascular diseases.
