Background: General Health Perception and Quality of Life of Puerto Ricans with Cardiovascular Diseases Cardiovascular diseases (CD) are among the leading causes of mortality in Puerto Rico. In the United States, Latinos report a higher prevalence of risk factors related to CD. Objective: to evaluate the relationship between the general health perception (GHP) and health related quality of life (HRQoL) in Puerto Ricans who suffer from CD. Method: We used the "Puerto Rico Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System" survey (2015) to compute the relationship between GHP and HRQoL in people who reported suffering from CD (n = 588). Results: The bivariate analysis show an association between HRQoL (mental and physical), GHP and CD. CD-adjusted models show a greater probability of adults reporting a poor HRQoL. The findings indicate a higher probability that adults with coronary heart disease report having poor mental (OR=2.36; p<0.05) and physical health (OR=2.42; p=<0.05). Similar findings were obtained for subjects who had experienced a stroke and reported poor physical health (OR= 1.96; p<0.05). Good to poor health was reported greater in subjects with coronary disease (OR=3.43; p,0.05). Conclusion: people with coronary diseases report higher probability of experiencing poor HRQoL in comparison with those who have experienced a stroke.
