heart disease deaths

Cardiovascular mortality toll

Deaths caused by conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels—coronary artery disease, heart attacks, heart failure, arrhythmias, and related disorders.

Heart disease deaths remain the leading cause of mortality in many developed countries: Heart disease deaths have declined since the 1960s due to better treatments and lifestyle changes.
