This first systematic survey of cardiology manpower in Europe highlights significant regional disparities in the density of cardiologists, reflecting different roles and capacities across nations.
This is the first systematic survey of cardiology manpower in Europe. Hitherto, there has been no published information on the number of cardiologists in the different European nations and whether it was growing or stable. Important differences in the number of cardiologists and trainees are observed, with the highest figures in Greece, Italy and France (more than 80/10(6)inhabitants) and the lowest in the Scandinavian nations, Austria, Germany and the U.K. (35 or less/10(6)inhabitants). This is partly due to different roles and the activities of the cardiologists in these countries as well as their capacity to undertake various cardiological procedures. Some comparisons with the U.S.A. and projections for the year 2000 are also made.
