The burden of cardiovascular disease is rising in Native Americans. Incidence rates for cardiovascular disease in Native Americans, which at one time were remarkably low, are now 2-fold higher than the rates seen in other ethnic groups in the United States. In addition, recent evidence suggests that cardiovascular events are more likely to be fatal in Native Americans and that cardiovascular disease is now the leading cause of death in most tribes.
