Data were reported to the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene by 31 December 2018. Each reported death had a single underlying cause assigned but may have had >1 contributing cause. All trends were increasing over time. The ICD-10 codes used were I00–I78 for cardiovascular diseases (I46 was excluded for contributing causes); I00–I09, I11, I13, and I20–I51 for diseases of the heart (I46 was excluded for contributing causes); I20 and I25 for chronic ischemic heart disease; I21–I22 for acute myocardial infarction; I26–I28 for pulmonary heart disease; I47–I49 for arrhythmia; I42 for cardiomyopathy; I00–I09 and I34–I38 for valvular heart disease; I10–I13 and I15 for hypertensive diseases; I60–I69 for cerebrovascular diseases; and I50.0, I50.1, I50.9, I11.0, I13.0, I13.2, and I13.9 for heart failure.
