Objectives: Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of mortality worldwide, and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is particularly fatal condition VSports手机版. We evaluated the incidence and case fatality rates of AMI in Korea from 2011 to 2020. .

Methods: We utilized data from the National Health Insurance Services to calculate crude, age-standardized, and age-specific incidence rates, along with 30-day and 1-year case fatality rates, of AMI from 2011 to 2020. Age-standardized incidence rates were determined using direct standardization to the 2005 population. V体育安卓版.

Results: The crude incidence rate of AMI per 100,000 person-years consistently increased from 44. 7 in 2011 to 68. 3 in 2019, before decreasing slightly to 66. 2 in 2020. The age-standardized incidence rate of AMI displayed a 19% rise from 2011 to 2019, followed by a slight decline in 2020. The increasing trend for AMI incidence was more pronounced in males than in females. Both 30-day and 1-year case fatality rates remained stable among younger individuals but showed a decrease among older individuals V体育ios版. There was a minor surge in case fatality in 2020, particularly among recurrent AMI cases. .

Conclusions: Over the past decade, the AMI incidence rate in Korea has consistently increased, with a slight downturn in 2020. The case fatality rate has remained relatively stable except for a minor increase in 2020. This study provides data for continuous surveillance, the implementation of targeted interventions, and the advancement of research aimed at AMI in Korea VSports最新版本. .
