Statistics by Country for Cardiomyopathy
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Cardiomyopathy:
These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates
against the populations of a particular country or region.
The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of Cardiomyopathy are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.
This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences
across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated Cardiomyopathy statistics below refer to.
As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate (especially for developing or third-world countries) and only give a general indication (or even a meaningless indication)
as to the actual prevalence or incidence of Cardiomyopathy in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Cardiomyopathy: The word 'prevalence' of Cardiomyopathy usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Cardiomyopathy at any given time (i.e. people with Cardiomyopathy). The term 'incidence' of Cardiomyopathy means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Cardiomyopathy diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Cardiomyopathy). Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics. |
Prevalance of Cardiomyopathy: 50,000 Americans (NHLBI)
Prevalance Rate for Cardiomyopathy: approx 1 in 5,439 or 0.02% or 50,000 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Prevalence Rate of Cardiomyopathy to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above prevalence rate for Cardiomyopathy to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these prevalence extrapolations for Cardiomyopathy are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual prevalence of Cardiomyopathy in any region:
