Funded Activity Summary

This project concerns operations to unblock or bypass the coronary arteries that supply the muscle of the heart. The project has two parts. One is concerned with checking that changes in medical and surgical treatment of coronary artery disease have been followed by improvements in survival of affected patients. The second will use data on changes in the Australian population, changes in the frequency of heart disease and changes in treatments for heart disease to predict how many coronary operations will be needed in Australia over the next decade. This is a vital step in planning hospital services for patients with coronary disease.
