This was activity was very good and I have been able to revise and reflect on what have been able to remember from my practice as a Registered Nurse and my university time. With the activity I watched I have gained more confidence. The activity was conducted really well too.

Really enjoyed this lecture, particularly all of the statistics.
Catherine Papadopoulos
Well presented lecture with a good overview of heart disease. Interesting the fact that 18-44 year old females at higher risk in Australia which opposes world statistics. Further research in this would prove interesting

Very informative and valuable resource. I was unaware that CVD is more prevalent in women aged 18-44 in Australia, worldwide it is males, then once male reach age 45 it is more prevalent worldwide than females. This has increased my understanding of CVD and the associated conditions that fall under CVD and the many associated risk factors
