Material and Method: We studied 67 patients (40 men and 27 women) who were admitted to Internal Medicine Clinic of Haseki Education and Research Hospital in between June 2007 and July 2008. Results: Of the patients, 40 (59,7%) were men and 27 patients (40,3%) were women. The average age of the patients was 58,6±9,77 years, ranging between 30 and 85. It was found that there was a statistically significant difference between patients' health insurance types (p=0,001). The rate of smoking men was higher than smoking women. So, smoking according to gender was also found statistically significant (p<0.05). Hypertension was seen in men more than women which was statistically significant according to sex (p=0,005). There was no association between complications seen after myocardial infarction and patient's health insurance types (p>0,05). Conclusion: It was found that there was a statistically significant difference between patients social security institute (p=0,001). Between gender and smoking rates are seen as statistically significant difference (p<0,05). Higher rate of smoking of men than women were found. The incidence of hypertension was found statistically significant relationship between gender (p=0,005). The incidence is significantly higher in male patients. Of the patients developed myocardial infarction complications as Yeşil Kart rate of 32.6%, SSK 54,3%, Emekli Sandi{dotless}?i{dotless} 6,5%, Bag-Kur 4,3%, without social security 2,2%. It was found that there was a statistically significant difference between the social security institute and complications after myocardial infarction.
