dc.description.abstract The present study was designed to investigate the prevalence of cardiovascular disease in patients with chronic kidney disease in some hospitals of Dhaka. One hundred and seventy two respondents were selected by purposive sampling method as samples for the present study. The main objective of the present study was to investigate the presence of cardiovascular disease in chronic kidney disease patients. The specific objectives were: (i) To investigate prevalence of cardiovascular disease in chronic kidney disease patients, (ii) To investigate how much CKD patients have cardiovascular disease or risk of cardiovascular disease. For collecting data physical health questionnaires were applied on the respondents of the present research. And we found that prevalence of Atherosclerotic Heart Disease (ASHD) in CKD patients was 41.28% and subsequently Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) in CKD patients was 11.05% Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) in CKD patients was 27.33%, Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) in CKD patients was 25.58%. Prevalence of CVD in patients with CKD in Bangladesh is very high. Presence of CKD appears to be an independent risk factor for CVD outcomes, particularly in higher-risk populations. Beside those, patients with CKD should be considered in the highest-risk group for CVD events. en_US
