AbstractHistory of antithrombotic therapy in cardiology has almost 70 years, and it is undoubtedly the importance of the achievements of Soviet scientists. The creation of a domestic thrombolytic fibrinolysin at MSU G. V. Andreenko, its first successful application in patients with myocardial infarction (MI), conducted by E. I. Chazov, and then by other domestic researchers, played a crucial role in proving the need for a quick restoration of the patency of infarct related artery. The world's first intracoronary thrombolysys, conducted by E. I. Chazov, together with the staff of the all-Union cardiological center, allowed to verify thrombosis as the cause of MI and demonstrate the effectiveness of thrombolytic therapy. One of the most important achievements of domestic researchers of the 60s of the last century was the understanding of the need not only to eliminate the thrombus by using of fibrinolysin, but also to prevent its recurrence, with administration of heparin with transition to VKA. This conclusion, in fact, is a statement of the need for long - term antithrombotic therapy in patients with сoronary artery disease (CAD). Over the past 70 years, antithrombotic therapy in CAD has undergone significant changes, this was facilitated by the undoubted progress in understanding the mechanisms of atherosclerosis and thrombosis development. Nevertheless, the basic principles of antithrombotic therapy, laid down by the national school in the 60s of the last century, have survived.
