Abstract: Coronary heart disease is a multifactorial disease, one of which is high level of cholesterol in the body, especially level of low density lipoprotein. Triglycerides are one of the cofactors of the formation of low density lipoprotein in the body, which is obtained through the consumption of excessive fat and de novo production in the body. The author hopes that by making this paper, the contribution of triglycerides in coronary heart disease can become clearer. This research is a descriptive cross-sectional study to determine the prevalence of coronary heart disease in hypertrigliceridemic patients using medical record. Characteristics of the patients by sex were male (83.5%) and female (16.5%), where in this study the patients are categorized based on normal triglyceride level, borderline high triglyceride level, and high triglyxeride level. The prevalence of patients with normal triglyceride level were 64.94%%, The prevalence of patients with borderline high triglyceride level were 16.49%, and the prevalence of patients with high triglyceride level were 18.57%.
