Other heart diseases
There are many diseases of the heart, in addition to ischemic heart diseases. Examples of such conditions include:
- pulmonary heart disease: where high blood pressure in the blood vessels leading to the lungs can cause an enlargement and failure of the heart
- congenital heart diseases: where a person is born with a heart defect
- cardiomyopathy: where the heart muscle is abnormal
- arrhythmias: where the heart chambers do not beat in a proper, coordinated rhythm
- heart failure: where the heart is weakened and cannot pump blood efficiently
- cardiac arrest: where the heart stops beating completely
- hospitalization by geographic area
- hospitalization by Greater Sudbury and outlying areas
- hospitalizations by sex
- by age group
- deaths by geographic area
- potential years of life lost (PYLL) by geographic area
Other heart diseases hospitalizations by geographic area
Key findings
- In the Sudbury & District Health Unit (SDHU) area, there were 1,107 hospitalizations due to other heart diseases in 2013.
