We have now started the 3rd wave of Helseundersøkelsen i Hordaland
(HUSK). Please see https://husk.w.uib.nofor details. We are reexamining
3000 persons, who have participated in the two previous waves of HUSK in
the 1990s, when the participants were in their forties.
The focus for HUSK3 is how lifestyle and change in risk factors when you
are in your forties, determineyour cardiovascular health 20 years
later. HUSK3 has also a particular focus on high blood pressure and
cardiac health in women.
The project is an unique research collaboration between the University
of Bergen and Helse-Bergen, and is the first large scale project
performed in Research Unit for Health Surveys (FHU). Other
representatives in the project are the Norwegian Women’s Public Health
Association.
The opening seminar will be held in Auditoriet in Bikuben congress
center, Haukeland University Hospital. The international lecturers have
