Description
Kiarash Riazi and co-authors review the use of electronic medical records to track heart and vessel disease. Their 2024 study notes that these diseases are the top cause of death and illness across the world. Tracking has long relied on surveys, registries, and admin data. As records go digital, clinic records offer a rich new source of real world facts.
The team searched two large databases for studies of rates and trends based on such records. The search found 11,979 records, with 5,886 set for screening. Early results show most reports came from the United States. The United Kingdom, China, Spain, and Canada followed. The most common diseases were artery disease of the heart, high blood pressure, stroke, and heart failure.
