Introduction: A myocardial infarction (MI) commonly known as a heart attack is a serious health condition for people. The frequency of MI is eight to nine times greater in men and women who are mostly 55 to 64 years old. Almost 18.6 million people died of MI in 2019 and early 2020. The study aims to determine the role of risk factors in the reduction of MI. Methods: A retrospective study was carried out at the department of cardiology, Prime Medical College Hospital, Rangpur, Bangladesh during the period of January 2021 to December 2021. A total of 50 patients were enrolled in this study following the inclusive criteria. Verbal permission was taken before recruiting the study population. Completed data forms were reviewed, edited, and processed for computer data entry. The data analysis was performed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 25.0. Result: Among the study group (N=50), the mean age of the patients was 55.12±SD, most of the patients (33,66%) age was between forty-one to sixty years, and around one-fourth of the patients' (12,24%) age ranged from sixty-one to eighty years. In the case of risk factors, an unpaired t- test was obtained. Hypertension was present in eighteen patients (18, 36%) and their mean age was 58.2 years, the relationship between age with hypertension was not significant. Type 2 diabetes was present in nine patients (9, 18%) and their mean age was 55.0 years the relationship between age with type 2 diabetes was not significant. Smoking was present in fifteen patients (15, 30%) and the relationship between age with smoking was not significant. Conclusion: Bangladesh is twofold-troubled with communicable and non-communicable diseases. Both men and women had a severe threat factor of MI. Besides, an intensifying incidence of lifestyle-related risk factors, tied with the ageing population results in a higher proportion of MI both men and women.
