Details
Created to meet the problems resulting from cardiovascular diseases in the growing aged population. The Society of Geriatric Cardiology was founded in 1986 by world-renowned research and clinical cardiologists, and incorporated as a not-for-profit organization to meet the problems resulting from cardiovascular diseases in the increasing numbers of aging men and women throughout the world. It is anticipated that by the year 2030, there will be 51.4 million people in the United States over 65, including 7.1 million over age 85. The increase appears to be due in part to the large number of individuals of all ages who are actively modifying adverse life styles and thereby postponing premature death from degenerative diseases. But, the added years in many instances, are hampered by cardiovascular disability, dependency, and infirmity.
