Approximately 7 million people in the UK are living with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Risk factors such as atrial fibrillation (AF), hypertension and high cholesterol significantly increase the risk of serious cardiovascular events, costing the NHS an estimated £7.4 billion each year in England (2019 figures) and around £12 billion across the UK.
