ABSTRACT
This is a retrospective study of patients with first attack of myocardial infarction admitted to Medical College Hospital, Calicut during the years 1969 to 1988. The data analysed were compared to other hospital based studies in India and abroad. A striking increase in the percentage of acute myocardial infarction was observed. There was also an increase in the occurrence of myocardial infarction in the young. A properly designed population based study is warranted.
