Overview

Poland lags peers in AMI mortality decline, warranting enhanced prevention; extends EU trend data to 2022.

Key Points

  • The study aims to compare the trends in acute myocardial infarction mortality in Poland to select EU countries from 2000 to 2022.
  • Standardized death rates were obtained from the Eurostat database.
  • Annual percentage change and average annual percentage change were calculated with 95% confidence intervals.
  • Data comparison with France, Denmark, Czech Republic, Finland, Sweden, Slovenia, and Romania.
  • In 2000, Poland's SDR for AMI was 115.9 per 100,000; lower than countries like Finland (184.4) and Czech Republic (161.6).
  • From 2000 to 2022, Poland experienced a -5.5% average annual decrease, slower than Finland (-7.9%) and the Czech Republic (-6.8%).
  • Denmark showed significant improvement, reducing its SDR from 103.6 in 2000 to 19.2 in 2022, reflecting an annual decline of -7.7%.

Although AMI mortality in Poland declined substantially between 2000 and 2022, the rate of decline was slower than in several other EU countries, highlighting the need for reinforced preventive cardiology measures.
