What this means

About 30,035 people registered with a GP in Suffolk live with coronary heart disease — narrowed heart arteries that can cause angina and heart attacks. Better survival means more people living with the condition, which is good news that pushes prevalence up.

95% confidence interval: 3.6–3.6 %. Source denominator: 832,171 patients registered at GP practices in the area (Persons, All ages); not necessarily residents and not a survey sample.

Caveats

  • GP-register prevalence only; undiagnosed cases are missing.
  • Not age-adjusted: younger places pull the figure down versus England.
  • Register prevalence reflects diagnosis, new cases, survival and recording; changes alone do not establish improving health.
  • Patients are assigned by GP practice location, not necessarily residence. The selected local-authority feed is 2024/25; it is not the newer national QOF release.
  • Lower is not automatically better — it mixes new cases, survival and recording. Not ranked.

Missing or suppressed values are never shown as zero — every card above passed validation with a real numeric value.
