Data
Mortality from cardiovascular diseases in Russia takes the first place, and 57% in the causes of death from all diseases.

Approximately the same number - the next 2:00.

In 2011, in Russia there were only 180,000 cases of acute coronary syndromes (or acute myocardial infarction). Of this amount, only 25 000 patients (13% of the total) received a high-tech help - endovascular revascularization - in the first hours of the disease. For comparison, in the EU the figure is in the range of 75-95% in the Czech Republic and Poland 95%.

"The development of medical technologies that allow to diagnose the disease and to provide quality medical care a wide range of the population, has led to a significant reduction in mortality from cardiovascular disease.
