摘要："Introduction: Several factors appear likely to have contributed to the ac-celeration of CHD epidemic in In-dia like demographic transition to an older population, as a result of increasing life expectancy and con-fluence of both conventional risk factors and non-conventional risk factors in Indians. Material and methods: It was a cross-sectional study, carried out in three villages of a PHC. A total of 3771 study subjects aged 15 years and above were included in the study. It was conducted from July 2007 to December 2009. We exam-ined the prevalence of CHD using WHO Rose Angina questionnaire and various risk factors of NCDs in central part of India using the WHO STEP approach. Results: Prevalence of Coronary heart disease (affirmative response to ROSE questionnaire) among the study subject was 226 (6.0 %). In males it was 123 (6.3 %) while in females it was 103 (5.7 %). This dif-ference was not found to be statisti-cally significant (?2=0.529, df=1, P= 0.467). Conclusion: Risk factors for coro-nary heart disease which were higher among males were Smoking, smokeless tobacco and alcohol con-sumption. While hypertension, Obesity (BMI?25kg/m2), sedentary type of physical activity, low fruits and vegetable consumption were the risk factors which were higher among females. "
