Key result
Population-based registries across six European countries demonstrated significant declines in acute myocardial infarction attack rates from 1985-2010, with the steepest decline in Finland (APC -4.4%).

Yes
AMI event rates and in-hospital case-fatality declined significantly across most European populations from 1985 to 2010, though pre-hospital case-fatality trends varied by sex and population.
