Large community-based population
Incidence of myocardial infarction (including ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction) and short-term case fatality rateshard clinical
Population-level incidence and short-term case fatality rates of acute myocardial infarction have significantly decreased since 2000, largely driven by a reduction in STEMI incidence.
Within a large community-based population, the incidence of myocardial infarction decreased significantly after 2000, and the incidence of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction decreased markedly after 1999. Reductions in short-term case fatality rates for myocardial infarction appear to be driven, in part, by a decrease in the incidence of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and a lower rate of death after non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
