Survivorship following myocardial infarction in a contemporary Australian cohort: defining cardiac versus non‐cardiac mortality
NCD outstrips CD at long-term follow-up in contemporary patients with MI, with the majority of deaths beyond hospital discharge attributable to NCD. The long-term risk of residual cardiac mortality was less than 30% in hospital survivors. Similar to considering the impact of cardiac events in cancer survivorship, the burden of non-cardiac events in MI survivorship needs to be considered.
