MORBIDITY AND MORTALITY IN THE ELDERLY DUE TO ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION: INSIGHTS FROM A RETROSPECTIVE EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDY

Аннотация

Looking back, CVD has been the leading cause of death worldwide since 2015. Thus, according to WHO data, in 2012, 17.5 million people died from CVD, which accounted for 31% of the number of deaths in the world. Of this number, 7,4 million people died from coronary artery disease. IHD accounts for 26,6% in the structure of the population's appeals for CVD, and 20,1% in the structure of morbidity among the adult population. The prevalence of coronary artery disease rises sharply with age - from 2-5% at the age of 45-54 years to 11-20% at the age of 65-74 years; lethality in coronary artery disease -3,02%, in myocardial infarction – 4,5% of the number of those who left hospitals. The epidemiology of the prevalence of morbidity and mortality from AMI in elderly and senile patients has been studied relatively insufficiently, especially in the regions of Uzbekistan.
