English to Croatian: Cardiovascular Disease / Kardiovaskularne bolesti General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical: Health Care
Source text - English Cardiovascular disease is the #1 cause of death worldwide. The most well known examples of cardiovascular disease are heart attacks and stroke.
Cardiovascular disease occurs when a person’s heart and blood vessels (veins and arteries) become unhealthy. Fatty deposits of excess cholesterol can build up inside the blood vessels, making them harder and narrower, and unable to transport blood around the body effectively. This can damage other parts of the body like the heart or brain.
Fortunately, you can take control of most risk factors for cardiovascular disease:
• Smoking doubles or triples a person’s risk of heart disease. Stopping smoking is the biggest step someone can take to protect heart health. The risk starts dropping within minutes of quitting!
• Diet: Eating 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day and limiting salt intake can help prevent heart disease. You should also try to eat less unhealthy (saturated) fat and more healthy (unsaturated) fat. Do this by eating nuts, avocados, olive oil and oily fish. Cut back on red meat, pre-packaged snack foods, fast foods and high fat dairy products.
• Physical Activity: As little as 30 minutes of physical activity a day, most days of the week, can improve heart health tremendously. Brisk walking counts – no equipment needed!
• Mental Health: People who are depressed or socially isolated are more likely to develop cardiovascular disease.
• Genetics: Find out if heart disease runs in your family. Knowing your family’s health history can help you assess your own risk. People with a family history of heart disease need to be even more careful about their lifestyle.
• Other Medical Conditions: High cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity and diabetes all increase a person’s risk of heart attacks and stroke. People with these conditions can stay healthier by routinely monitoring their health and working to get their condition under good control.
Translation - Croatian Kardiovaskularne bolesti glavni su uzrok smrti širom svijeta. Najpoznatiji primjeri ovakvih bolesti su srčani i moždani udar.
Do kardiovaskularnih bolesti dolazi prilikom obolijevanja srca, vena i arterija. Masne naslage suvišnog kolesterola mogu se nataložiti u krvnim žilama, čineći ih tako tvrđima i užima, te nesposobnima za učinkovit prijenos krvi kroz tijelo. Ovo pak može oštetiti druge dijelove tijela kao što su srce ili mozak.
Srećom, nad većinom rizičnih čimbenika za kardiovaskularne bolesti moguće je preuzeti kontrolu:
• Pušenje udvostručava ili čak utrostručava rizik obolijevanja od srčane bolesti. Prestanak pušenja najveći je korak koji se može poduzeti u svrhu zaštite zdravlja vlastitog srca. Rizik se počinje smanjivati već nekoliko minuta nakon prestanka pušenja!
• Prehrana: Konzumacija pet ili više porcija voća i povrća dnevno, te ograničen unos soli mogu pomoći pri sprječavanju srčanih bolesti. Također biste morali pokušati jesti manje nezdravih (zasićenih) masnoća, a više onih zdravih (nezasićenih). Ovo možete učiniti tako što ćete jesti orašaste plodove, avokado, maslinovo ulje i plavu ribu. Smanjite unos crvenog mesa, pakiranih grickalica, brze hrane i mliječnih proizvoda s visokim udjelom masti.
• Tjelesna aktivnost: Svega 30 minuta tjelesne aktivnosti dnevno tijekom većine dana u tjednu može izuzetno poboljšati zdravlje srca. I brza šetnja se računa – a za nju vam nije potrebna nikakva oprema!
• Mentalno zdravlje: Veća je vjerojatnost da će osobe koje su u depresiji ili društveno izolirane oboljeti od kardiovaskularnih bolesti.
• Genetika: Saznajte postoji li u vašoj obitelji povijest srčanih bolesti. Poznavanje medicinske povijesti vlastite obitelji može vam pomoći pri procjenjivanju vlastitog rizika. Osobe s obiteljskom poviješću srčanih bolesti moraju biti još opreznije po pitanju stila života.
• Druge zdravstvene tegobe: Povišeni kolesterol, povišeni krvni tlak, pretilost i dijabetes povećavaju rizik od srčanog i moždanog udara. Osobe koje pate od ovih tegoba mogu se održati zdravima tako što će redovito pratiti svoje zdravstveno stanje i svjesno raditi na učinkovitom kontroliranju svojih tegoba.

ENGLISH/GERMAN/SWEDISH TO CROATIAN TRANSLATOR Background
I am a freelance Croatian translator based in Ireland since 2003. I have been translating since 2001, and my professional experience also includes positions in the multicultural business environment at IBM and Google. In these roles I gained thorough understanding of the corporate world and how customer satisfaction plays a major role in achieving excellence and success. I have also honed my time management skills, as well as the ability to multitask, at the same time devoting great attention to detail. My structured and committed approach to work enables me to work to deadlines, thus being a highly dependable partner in any type of a business project. Additionally, I have extensive experience in community interpreting; I am a certified court interpreter and also hold an SDL Trados certification.
Services
I offer high quality translation, localisation and subtitling services from English, German and Swedish into Croatian. While these are the main fields I work in, I also do proofreading, as well as telephone and on-site community interpreting in Dublin and the surrounding areas.
When translating, my goal is to deliver a fluent translation that clearly conveys the message of the source text. In order to achieve this, I carefully consider the purpose and the audience of the target text, meticulously research and consistently apply specific terminology, pay detailed attention to the general style and flow of the text and carefully proofread the final version of the document.
Areas of Specialisation
I mainly work with content intended for user or customer support in the fields of Internet-related products and services, healthcare (healthcare services, patient information booklets, informed consent forms for clinical research studies), questionnaires (quality of life, wellbeing and health), education (training manuals for teachers, teacher's handbooks), and tourism/travel (tourism website localisation). I also subtitle and proofread cinema, DVD and TV materials.
