Expertise Center
Cardiovascular Risk
Measuring and reducing cardiovascular and cardiometabolic risk across Indonesia's health system.
Overview
About the center.
The Cardiovascular Risk Center studies the distribution, drivers, and management of cardiometabolic risk in Indonesia, drawing on population surveys, national insurance claims, and facility data. Its work spans composite risk estimation, behavioural exposures such as tobacco use, and the performance of primary care in detecting and managing hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidaemia. Findings are translated into interactive tools and policy-facing reports that support equitable, geographically targeted prevention and care.
Scope of Work
What this center covers.
- Composite cardiometabolic risk estimation and trends
- Tobacco and smoking exposure as a modifiable risk factor
- Hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidaemia detection in primary care
- Geographic and socioeconomic equity in cardiovascular risk
- High-risk population identification and targeting
