8.9 million (2015) [ 12] Coronary artery disease ( CAD ), also called coronary heart disease ( CHD ), ischemic heart disease ( IHD ), [ 13] myocardial ischemia, [ 14] or simply heart disease, involves the reduction of blood flow to the cardiac muscle due to build-up of atherosclerotic plaque in the arteries of the heart. [ 5][ 6][ 15] It is the ...
Ischemic Cardiomyopathy. Ischemic cardiomyopathy is a type of cardiomyopathy caused by a narrowing of the coronary arteries which supply blood to the heart. [ 4] Typically, patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy have a history of acute myocardial infarction, [ 5] however, it may occur in patients with coronary artery disease, but without a past ...
Coronary ischemia, myocardial ischemia, [ 1] or cardiac ischemia, [ 2] is a medical term for abnormally reduced blood flow in the coronary circulation through the coronary arteries. [ 3] Coronary ischemia is linked to heart disease, and heart attacks. [ 4] Coronary arteries deliver oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle. [ 5]
Acute coronary syndrome ( ACS) is a syndrome (a set of signs and symptoms) due to decreased blood flow in the coronary arteries such that part of the heart muscle is unable to function properly or dies. [ 1] The most common symptom is centrally located pressure-like chest pain, often radiating to the left shoulder [ 2] or angle of the jaw, and ...
Ischemic heart disease is a spectrum of diseases of the heart caused by decreased oxygen supply to the myocardium ( muscle of the heart). Ischemic heart disease is a sequela of coronary artery disease . This category reflects the organization of International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision.
Coronary artery ectasia is a rare disease that occurs in only 0.3-4.9% of people in North America. Coronary artery ectasia is characterized by the enlargement of a coronary artery to 1.5 times or more than its normal diameter. [1] The disease is commonly asymptomatic and is normally discovered when performing tests for other conditions such as ...
Cardiology. Hypertensive heart disease includes a number of complications of high blood pressure that affect the heart. While there are several definitions of hypertensive heart disease in the medical literature, [ 1][ 2][ 3] the term is most widely used in the context of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) coding categories.
