This study aims to evaluate cardiovascular risk factors, clinical characteristics, and outcomes in adult patients attending an outpatient cardiology clinic. The research focuses on identifying predictors of adverse cardiovascular events, optimizing risk stratification, and improving preventive strategies in routine clinical practice. Data will be collected from patients receiving standard cardiology care without altering their treatment. The results are expected to contribute to better understanding of cardiovascular risk profiles and to support improvements in clinical decision-making and patient management.
