Implication

Variability in European AMI and stroke registers warrants caution in cross-national comparisons; leaves open the value of standardized methods for future surveillance.

Structured PICO

Population

Population-based registers of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stroke in Europe

Outcome

Comparability of morbidity indicators (attack rate, incidence, prevalence, case fatality rate) and methodologies across registers

Standardization of methodologies and validation procedures is needed to ensure comparability of AMI and stroke morbidity indicators across European population-based registers.
