Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most common cardiovascular diseases, is associated with high mortality in the population, and often presents atypically. At the same time, CAD often leads to arrhythmias, the timely diagnosis of which is necessary to adjust treatment and to prevent life-threatening arrhythmias.
