The number of operations carried out to treat CHD has increased.  The amount of coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) has increased six fold since 1980 and by around a third between 1993 and 2003. Just under 29,000 operations for CABG were carried out in the UK in 2003.).  The number of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) is increasing at an even faster rate than for CABG and over 73,000 are now carried out annually in the UK, nearly four times more than a decade ago.  The number of PCIs are currently increasing at a rate of 5% per year.

Rates of CABG and PCI vary substantially across the UK. Maps of coronary revascularisation rates for men and women by local authority in England in 2002 show a greater than six fold difference between the lowest and highest rates.  More recently, rates of operations for CHD have been shown to vary greatly around England for both men and women, with high operation rates found in urban and metropolitan areas, and in rural areas in the North and South West of England. These maps and associated tables are available at www.heartstats.org/publications.
