The Incidence of Pectoris Angina Post-Acute Myocardial Infarction in Romania – RO-STEMI Database
Journal Title: Journal of Applied Quantitative Methods - Year 2007, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Cardio-vascular diseases are the major cause of mortality, with ischemic cardiac disease as the major form, followed by stroke. Each of these diseases accounts for some 15 million deaths per year, representing 30% of the total number of death. The highest mortality is registered in the countries of former USSR and those of Eastern Europe. France and Japan had the lowest rate of mortality by ischemic heart disease. This study is based on a retrospective analysis of the medical information provided by RO-STEMI database.
