Aim of the study: To assess the association between traditional risk factors and the development of cardiovascular diseases. Methods: A cross-sectional study, was conducted during the period from the 1st of January 2022 to the 1st of May 2023 at Alrusafa Directorate of Health /AL Kindy Teaching Hospital and Ibn Al-Nafees Hospital Results: The smoker patients were 48.5%, whereas 44.5% were overweight, and 18.5% of them were obese. 57.0% had hypertension, 41% had diabetes mellitus, and 41.5% had hyperlipidemia. The patients with ST-SEMI are (65.5%), while 15.5% of them had non- ST-SEMI. No significant association was obtained between the sociodemographic history and the type of ACS. Conclusion: Hypertension was the commonest prevalent disease among the patients followed by diabetes mellitus. A family history of the acute coronary syndrome is significantly associated with the type of acute coronary syndrome.
