Answer:

calculating waist-to-hip ratio

Explanation:

The waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is the calculation from waist and hip measurements to ascertain a person's risk of developing cardiovascular disease. This is because, the higher the concentration of abdominal fat, the greater the risk of having problems such as high cholesterol, diabetes, high blood pressure or atherosclerosis.

To identify early on, know what are the symptoms of infarction.
