Vascular risk is the probability of suffering an illness of the arteries. This risk is influenced by diverse elements, known as vascular risk factors, which cause arterial lesions. These factors can occur individually or together in the same person, which makes the risk of suffering damages multiply.

1. Arterial Hypertension
2. Cholesterol
