BACKGROUND
In Nigeria, the incidence of coronary artery disease has doubled over the last three decades. However, there appears to be a lack of adequate heart catheterisation facilities.
METHODS
A list of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-capable facilities was compiled for each state in Nigeria and the federal capital territory. Population estimates for 2019 were obtained from the National Bureau of Statistics and this was utilised to calculate the number of PCI facilities per person in each state and the country.
RESULTS
There are 12 operational PCI facilities in Nigeria, 11 of which are in the private health sector. Overall, there is one PCI facility per 16 761 272 people in Nigeria.
CONCLUSION
There is a distinct lack of PCI-capable facilities in Nigeria. There needs to be an investment from the government and stakeholders in Nigeria to increase the access to PCI, given the paradigm shift from communicable to noncommunicable diseases.
背景
在过去的三十年中，尼日利亚的冠心病发病率翻了一番。然而，似乎缺乏足够的心脏导管插入术设施。
方法
为尼日利亚的每个州和联邦首都区编制了一份经皮冠状动脉介入治疗 (PCI) 能力设施清单。2019 年的人口估计数取自国家统计局，利用这一数据计算出每个州和全国每 100 万人的 PCI 设施数量。
结果
尼日利亚有 12 个运行中的 PCI 设施，其中 11 个在私营医疗部门。总体而言，尼日利亚每 16761272 人拥有一个 PCI 设施。
结论
尼日利亚明显缺乏 PCI 能力设施。鉴于从传染病到非传染性疾病的范式转变，尼日利亚政府和利益攸关方需要投资增加 PCI 的可及性。
