Purpose: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stroke are leading global causes of death and can be used to assess acute care quality. We examined the 30-day mortality trends after emergency department admission for AMI and stroke in Korea from 2008 to 2019, focusing on regional and income disparities. Materials and Methods: The AMI and stroke patients admitted to hospitals in Korea were collected from the claims data. We analyzed age and sex-standardized 30-day mortality for AMI, as well as hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes. Disparities in mortality were analyzed using absolute differences and relative ratios between the Organization for Economic Cooperation Development (OECD) and Korea, and among income levels and regions in Korea. A 12-year joinpoint regression was used to determine the annual percent change and the average annual percent change. Results: The trends in the 30-day AMI mortality of Korea were not significantly changed from 2008 to 2019; the gap remained at 1.2 between the OECD and Korea. Korea maintained lower mortality rates for hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke than the mean of OECD. In Korea, the 30-day hemorrhagic stroke mortality showed a constant decreasing trend for the higher-income group living in urban areas; it led to a widened gap based on income levels in urban areas. The 30-day mortality for ischemic stroke tended to decrease in the higher-income group and urban areas. Conclusion: National-level intervention is needed to manage regional and income-based disparities in AMI and stroke 30-day mortality. It is important to understand the variance in mortality rate by different geographical regions and income levels to establish an appropriate public health strategy.

Materials and Methods: The AMI and stroke patients admitted to hospitals in Korea were collected from the claims data.
