title: [Registration of cases of non-hospitalized patients sudden death due to acute myocardial infarct and acute coronary insufficiency and its importance for further improvement in the control of ischemic heart disease].
abstract: An analysis is presented on the recording, in accordance with the WHO programme, of extramural deaths in the city of Kaunas attributable to acute myocardial infarction and acute coronary insufficiency. In 89 patients who died outside of hospital walls the morphological studies revealed only a scar (not exceeding 0.5 cm in size) of a sustained acute myocardial infarction. In 64% of them the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction was not made intravitally. The recording of cases of extrahospital mortality is of great practical importance. It indicates that the medical aid to patients with ischaemic heart disease remains insufficient.
