Comparison of coronary heart disease stratification using the Jakarta cardiovascular score between main office and site office workers

摘要

The risk of cardiovascular disease has been reported to be associated with a sedentary behavior, which is characterized by long-term activities that involve lying down or sitting, especially when done for more than 10 h a day, compared with less than 5 h a day. One underlying problem in this company was the significant number of cardiovascular disease risk factors that were obtained during periodic check of employees in one department and the lack of assessment in the other departments. The purpose of this research was to determine the cardiovascular disease risk stratification using the Jakarta Cardiovascular Score as a recommendation to the company management to use this score to assess the risks for cardiovascular disease among workers, especially those in the main office. A cross-sectional study design was used with comparative analysis. The factor that was most closely related with cardiovascular risk stratification was a family history of cardiovascular disease (p = 0.021, OR = 1334.3, dan 95% CI = 147.1–12,103.6).
