The World Health Organisation (WHO) reports that cardiovascular illnesses are the main cause of death worldwide, accounting for over 18 million fatalities annually. One in three deaths in the U.S., or around 655,000 deaths each year, are caused by CVDs. Heart irregularities, such as beating too quickly or too slowly, are known as arrhythmias. It can affect people of all ages and be brought on by a number of conditions, including high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease. The ageing population, bad lifestyles, and poor diets are only a few of the reasons why CVDs are now more common everywhere. Both developed and developing nations have seen an increase in the risk of cardiovascular disease with ageing. Demand for medical equipment, including ECG machines, and related accessories such cables and lead wires is driven by the increase in CD usage.
