Resumo

Cardiovascular diseases are leading causes of morbidity and mortality globally, including in Brazil. Primary health care plays a critical role in their prevention and early management, yet faces challenges like inadequate training of health professionals, limited diagnostic infrastructure, and patient adherence issues. Overcoming these obstacles is essential to enhance early detection through improved strategies in primary care, aiming to mitigate disease impact and reduce healthcare costs associated with advanced stages.
