Background--lifestyle modifications are first-line measures for cardiovascular disease prevention. whether lifestyle intervention also preserves cardiovascular health is less clear. our study examined the role of a health partner-administered lifestyle intervention on metrics of ideal cardiovascular health. methods and results--a total of 711 university employees (48±11 years; 66% women,72% caucasian/22.5% african americans) enrolled in a program that promoted healthier lifestyles at emory university (atlanta,ga). anthropometric,laboratory,and physical activity measurements were performed at baseline and at 6 months,1 year,and 2 years of follow-up. results were utilized by the health partner to generate a personalized plan aimed at meeting ideal health metrics. compared to baseline,at each of the 6-month,1-year,and 2-year follow-up visits,systolic blood pressure was lower by 3.6,4.6,and 3.3 mm hg (p<0.001),total cholesterol decreased by 5.3,6.5,and 6.4 mg/dl (p<0.001),body mass index declined by 0.33,0.45,and 0.38 kg/m2 (p<0.001),and the percentage of smokers decreased by 1.3%,3.5%,and 3.5% (p<0.01),respectively. changes were greater in those with greater abnormalities at baseline. finally,the american heart association life's simple 7 ideal cardiovascular health score increased by 0.28,0.40,and 0.33 at 6 month,1 year,and 2 years,respectively,compared to baseline visit. conclusions--a personalized,goal-directed health partner intervention significantly improved the cardiometabolic risk profile and metrics of cardiovascular health. these effects were evident at 6 months following enrollment and were sustained for 2 years. whether the health partner intervention improves long-term morbidity and mortality and is cost-effective needs further investigation. © 2016 the authors.
