International Cardiac
Healthcare & RiskFactor Modification
ICHARM is an initiative to
reduce heart disease and stroke in all countries in the World, by
encouraging healthier lifestyles and improving levels of diagnosis,
investigation & treatment of heart & circulatory disease. The project
is of universal application and can be tailored for implementation in any
developed or developing country.
· Every
year, worldwide, 17 million people die from these conditions. Another 20
million survive and require costly medical care.
· It
is universally recognised that factors such as alcohol, tobacco, inappropriate
diet, obesity, physical inactivity, stress, high cholesterol, raised blood pressure,
and diabetes all significantly increase the risk of developing heart disease
and stroke, and all can be positively modified.
ICHARM Management has assembled an
experienced and skilled International team to deliver this project.
ICHARM is
collaborating closely with the World Bank, WHO, Ministry of Health & Social
Development Russian Federation, Ministry of Health Bashkortostan Republic ,
International Business Leaders Forum & the State Scientific Research Centre
for Preventive Medicine, Moscow.
