Abstract:
Over the past decade, researchers and clinicians have become more aware of trends in morbidity and mortality among people with cardiovascular disease. Also, cardiovascular complications are now the most common cause of death. The importance of carrying out this study is based on the fact that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide; approximately 17.5 million people died of cardiovascular disease in 2005, accounting for 30% of all global deaths, and 80% of these deaths occurred in low and middle-income countries. The World Health Organization (2008) has warned that by 2025 approximately 20 million people will die of these conditions. In this context, human resources in this sector are indispensable to diminish this condition. This article aims at carrying out an analysis of the medical cadres in the field of cardiovascular medicine in Romania, as well as highlighting the importance of health policies on this issue. Taking into account the increase in cardiovascular diseases and the importance of diminishing this phenomenon, research is increasingly focusing on health policy in this field. Health policy in cardiovascular medicine is a key issue in reducing mortality rates but also in supporting the health of the population. JEL: A12, I10, I18, O15.
