OBJECTIVE

To study the incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD) among overall and primary morbidity of diseases of the circulatory system (DCS) during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as several years before it in urban and rural populations of the Penza region.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

Statistical analysis of data using correlation (Pearson’s coefficient), regression methods, t-test was performed to determine the significance of results.

RESULTS

The higher incidence of DCS among men in urban areas has been found. COVID-19 morbidity did not cause an increase in the incidence of SCD in the rural population in comparison with primary DCS morbidity, which was strongly correlated with the prevalence of novel coronavirus infection.

Keywords:

sudden cardiac death

COVID-19

coronavirus infection

diseases of the circulatory system
