Abstract

The analysis aimed for analyzing health status and quality of life (HRQOL) among early middle-aged individuals (ages 34–45) using the self-reported outcome measure assessing the impact of well-being on an individual’s day to day life. A sample of 50 participants from MAHER, Chennai, was selected through convenience sampling. Participants meeting inclusion criteria provided informed consent and completed a proforma and the SF-12 questionnaire, which evaluates HRQOL across eight physical and mental health domains. The questionnaire, requiring less than two minutes to complete, was shared via Google Forms through what’s app or email. The findings indicate a complex relationship between cardiovascular risk and HRQOL, with lower HRQOL linked to increased susceptibility to cardiovascular disease due to behavioral, physiological, and psychological factors. Lifestyle modifications, such as physical activity, time management, and dietary changes, enhance HRQOL, reduce cardiovascular risk, and improve overall health outcomes.
