{Abstract}: The article for the first time analyzes and compares data of STEPS-studies in 2016-2017 and 2019-2020 in Belarus. It demonstrates impact of organizational measures and management decisions at level of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Belarus on monitoring indicators of main risk factors of development of non-communicable diseases based on results of the study. The prospects of impact of risk factors of development of diseases of circulatory system on levels of population morbidity is demonstrated. The STEPS-studies of 2016-2017 and 2019-2020 were carried out by the authors as coordinators for the Brest region. In Belarus, the study was part of set of the UN measures implemented by the WHO targeted to ensuring increase in standard of living and well-being of population of Belarus. In 2016-2020, Belarus implemented project "Prevention of noncommunicable diseases, promotion of a healthy lifestyle and modernization of the healthcare system in the Republic of Belarus" (BELMED), funded by the EU as international technical assistance project. Within this project with the support of the WHO, national study was organized on prevalence of main risk factors of development of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in population of the Republic of Belarus aged 18-69 years. The article compares and demonstrates dynamics of indicators of main risk factors of development of diseases of circulatory system (BSC) according STEPS-studies of 2016-2017 and 2019-2020. It is demonstrated that organizational and managerial decisions made on the basis of large-scale studies can affect further prevalence of risk factors of NCDs in population. The problems of prospects for further increasing of incidence of BSC in the Republic of Belarus and their relationship with cardiovascular risks are also highlighted.
