Key result
The management and prevention of ischemic heart disease in individuals with a low socioeconomic status in low- and lower-middle-income countries are poor and require multifaceted improvements.
Why the study?
IHD is the leading cause of death and disability in LLMICs, with significantly higher mortality among individuals of low socioeconomic status.
Improving IHD outcomes in low SES populations in LLMICs requires a multifaceted approach addressing acute care access, secondary prevention, and social determinants of health.
