Despite the decline in cardiovascular mortality rate in recent decades due to the widespread use of antihypertensive, hypocholesterolemic and antiplatelet drugs, various manifestations of ischemic heart disease (IHD) retain one-third of the mortality pattern in individuals older than 35 years [1–3]. In regions with a developed health system, cardiovascular mortality is gradually declining. However, death from various manifestations of IHD remains the leading cause of death among adults regardless of income level [4].
