Overview

Cardio-renal-metabolic multimorbidity affects approximately one-third of adults aged ≥30 years in India, highlighting a significant burden that requires integrated primary care interventions.

Key Points

To assess the prevalence of cardio-renal-metabolic multimorbidity in India among adults aged 30 and above.
Conducted a large community-based study with 11017 adults in North and South India.
Administered questionnaires and measured blood pressure, height, weight, and fasting blood samples.
Defined cardio-renal-metabolic multimorbidity as the presence of two or more chronic conditions.
Overall cardio-renal-metabolic multimorbidity prevalence was 33.6% (95% CI: 32.7-34.5).
Prevalence was higher among males (37.7% (36.4-39.0)) and those in urban areas (42.9% (41.6-44.3)).
Among individuals aged ≥ 60 years, prevalence reached 49.7% (47.8-51.7) and was 44.3% (42.1-46.6) in the highest wealth quintile.

Structured PICO

Population

11,017 adults aged ≥ 30 years in North and South India, mean age 49.1, 53% female.

Outcome

Overall prevalence of cardio-renal-metabolic multimorbidity (CRMM) and stratified by age, gender, residence, and wealth index

Cardio-renal-metabolic multimorbidity affects approximately one-third of adults aged ≥30 years in India, highlighting a significant burden that requires integrated primary care interventions.
