Background: Guyana experiences health challenges related to both communicable and non-communicable diseases. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common non-communicable disease in Guyana. The main causes of the increased prevalence of non-communicable diseases are modifiable risk factors (e.g. obesity, hypertension, elevated cholesterol, unhealthy dietary patterns) and non-modifiable risk factors (e.g. age and genetics). Objective: The aim of this review is to understand CVD and risk factor data, in the context of ethnicity in Guyana. Methods: A review of the published literature as well as government and international health agency reports was conducted. All publications from 2002–2018 describing CVD and related risk factors in Guyana...
