About statistics:

This page presents a variety of statistics about Restrictive cardiomyopathy. The term 'prevalence' of Restrictive cardiomyopathy usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing Restrictive cardiomyopathy at any given time. The term 'incidence' of Restrictive cardiomyopathy refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Restrictive cardiomyopathy diagnosed each year. Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence.
