| description | The term 'acute myocardial infarction ' is used when there is evidence of myocardial necrosis in a situation when the clinical picture suggests myocardial ischemia. Average per year in the world of acute myocardial infarction fall ill 6 million people, lethality occur in over 25% of cases. Identification of the most important epidemiological characteristics of myocardial infarction in the Serbian areas of Kosovo and Metohija. In paper we used an epidemiological cross sectional study (cross -sectional). During the period of 2004-2011 in Kosovo and Metohija (Serbian areas) reported a total of 421 patients with acute myocardial infarction . The ratio of male patients compared to the number of female patients is 2,69:1 . The largest number of patients (92) and the highest non-standardized incidence rate of acute myocardial infarction (59.13/100000 population) are registered in 2008th year. Incidence of acute myocardial infarction showed a statistically significant correlation with patients ' age and gender (chi-square=21.39 , df=1 , p<0.001). The linear trend in incidence rates showed a positive trend with an increase in the number of patients (y=33.8 +2.3x) . Valid data on deaths were not available for the period since 2008. the 2011th year. During this period of acute myocardial infarction 166 persons died . The ratio of dead men and dead women was 1.22:1 . Unstandardized mortality rates of acute myocardial infarction ranged from 41.77/100,000 , recorded in the 2008th year to 17.35/100,000 inhabitants in 2011 year. The linear trend in the mortality rate showed a negative trend with a decrease in the number of deaths (y=26.7-3.6x). Acute myocardial infarction is a common disease in Kosovo and Metohija. The illness is dominated by males aged over 50 years. Almost 60% of deaths are people older than 70 years. This Illness has a positive trend, while the trend of dying is negative. |
