Abstract

Introduction: ischemic heart disease is considered one of the main chronic diseases and causes of morbidity and mortality in the Western world.

Objective: to correlate comorbidities and complications in patients who died due to acute myocardial infarction.

Materials and methods: an observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study, performed in the Teaching Clinical Surgical Hospital Amalia Simoni, from Camaguey, in a sample of 52 patients who died due to acute myocardial infarction, between 2017 and 2019, applying descriptive statistics.

Results: most of the cases were over 70 years and male, generally with a history of arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus and smoking. They presented anterior face infarction, classes III and IV of Killip and Kimball besides the complications given by heat insufficiency and cardiogenic shock, which lead these cases to dead within the first seven days after admission.

Conclusions: a study was carried out on mortality by acute myocardial infarction, where arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus and smoking were found among the most frequent risk factors, with a strict relationship with atherosclerotic damage.
