Coronary Heart Disease Coronary Heart Muscle Coronary arteries and veins are found within heart muscle Blood Clots Coronary thrombosis Coronary embolism Both block arteries that can cause instant death Myocardial infarction – heart attack due to lack of oxygen Atherosclerosis – lipid build up due to diet, causing narrowing of arteries, treated with angioplasty Angina pectoris – chest pain, warning sign of myocardial infarction Coronary bypass surgery, vessels from other areas of body are used to bypass clogged arteries. Heart Failure – inability to pump enough blood Cardiomyopathy – disease of myocardial tissue Cor pulmonale – overload Right side of heart due to pulmonary obstruction Congestive heart failure – left sided heart failure – can not pump blood effectively, retains fluid
