Sažetak
The aim was to analyze ischemic heart disease (IHD) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) mortality. Data on the respective mortality and in-hospital morbidity for the City of Zagreb and Republic of Croatia were retrospectively analyzed. The analysis included data on the number of deaths due to IHD (International Classification of Diseases-10th Revision (ICD-10) code I20-I25) and deaths due to AMI (ICD-10 code I21). Study results revealed the number of deaths from AMI to have continuously decreased from January 1, 2001 until December 31, 2016. During the study period, the age-standardized death rates from AMI decreased by 55.6% and 35.6% in Zagreb and Croatia, respectively. As the number of deaths due to the IHD group of syndromes did not show substantial decline, it was concluded that deaths due to IHD entities other than AMI were on an increase in both Zagreb and Croatia as a whole, calling for more attention to be paid to them.
