Coronary heart disease mortality is higher in Scotland than in the rest of the UK. The premature death rate for men living in Scotland is 50% higher than in the South West of England, and around 90% higher for women.

In recent years mortality from CHD has fallen in Scotland. The age standardised mortality rate has fallen by just over a third since 1994, from 223 per 100,000 to 140 per 100,000 in 2004.

Coronary heart disease mortality rates vary across Scotland. Highest rates are found in the west of Scotland.

Coronary heart disease mortality rates are lower in women than men across Scotland and vary by region.
