title: [What is the health status of cardiology health care personnel in 2001?].
abstract: The prevention of cardiovascular diseases belongs to priorities of the Czech public health care. Medical personnel should therefore set the example in the healthy way of life. At the meeting of the Working Group for Arrhythmia and Permanent Cardiostimulation at the Czech Cardiological Society, a questionnaire-based investigation for the evaluation of basic risk factors in workers engaged in cardiology (physicians, nurses, technicians) was performed. Our employees represent a paragon for the population in terms of motion activities and smoking in men. All of them also evaluate their subjective health better than the general population does. However, they consume larger amounts of alcohol and keep correct nutrition habits at a lower standard than the general population practices.
