A large accounting firm in an industrial park employs 212 workers who include certified public accountants, administrators, secretaries, and information technologists. The ratio of males to females is 3:1. The human resource department invited the company's main insurance carrier to hold a health fair on-site. Trained personnel conducted screenings for cholesterol, blood pressure, and body mass index. Attendance was mandatory for all employees. The screenings showed that 34% of the employees are obese (BMI ≥ 30), 30% have a waist circumference ≥ 35 inches (female) and ≥ 40 inches (male), 24% of the employees not treated for high cholesterol (i.e., not on medication) have a blood cholesterol level ≥ 200 mg/dL (7% of employees are taking cholesterol-lowering medication), and 18% of the employees not treated for high blood pressure have a blood pressure ≥ 120/80 mmHg (4% of employees are taking blood pressure medication). A survey given to employees revealed that 60% are physically inactive and 48% did not correctly answer questions that relate to diet, blood lipids, and heart disease. The insurance carrier offered the accounting firm a discount on health insurance premiums if a wellness program is instituted. The accounting firm has agreed to hire a registered dietitian to design and conduct the wellness program on-site. There is a conference room available for meetings and a "game room" that could be converted into a gym.

00:05 Derek has a bmi bmi of 40 or sorry 29 also, he is 42 years old then he says he used to smoke so he used to smoke but quit four years ago and hasn't smoked since.
00:29 His resting blood pressure is 140 over 86 so you have that the blood pressure is 140 over 86 millimeters of mercury then you have his total cholesterol total cholesterol is equal to 20 or 220 milligrams per deciliter then you have his fasting blood glucose was measured at 98.

01:33 So the age over 45 for men is considered a positive cardiovascular disease risk factors.
01:39 Okay.
01:39 So this is the age is not a risk factor in this case for derek then he doesn't have any family history he used to smoke but quit four years ago and hasn't smoked since so smoking is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
