    Extractions: Printer-friendly Page Coronary Artery Disease and Heart Attack Coronary artery disease (CAD), also called coronary heart disease (CHD), is the most common form of heart disease in America and Europe and is a serious health problem worldwide. CAD occurs from atherosclerosis, when arteries become narrow and hardened due to cholesterol plaque build-up. Further narrowing may occur from blood clots that form on the surfaces of plaques. Angina (chest pain) or shortness of breath may be present. Myocardial infarction (heart attack) can be a serious result of CAD, occurring when a blocked coronary artery causes death to a portion of the myocardium (heart muscle). Cardiac arrest may also result from CAD; 90% of sudden deaths occur in patients with two or more major arteries narrowed by atherosclerosis. Siemens advanced medical technologies are used by physicians for the detection, diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of coronary artery disease. These include cardiac ultrasound, CT, MR, nuclear medicine, cardiac catheterization labs, and the information management systems that support them.

    Extractions: 03:00 AM Jun. 23, 1999 PT A new technology may soon make it simpler, faster, and cheaper for doctors to diagnose heart disease, and with less risk to patients. Researchers at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, reported in Tuesday's issue of Circulation, the journal of the American Heart Association , that 3-D coronary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) could soon become the standard for diagnosing coronary artery disease. Read ongoing Med-Tech coverage Philips Medical Systems developed the technology, which uses magnets to display the blood vessels of the heart. The quality of an MRA image is comparable to that of a traditional angiograph, according to the researchers, who conducted a preliminary study on 13 subjects. Unlike conventional angiography now the gold standard doctors can use MRA without injecting dye into blood vessels or using X-rays.

This chest pain is relieved by rest or medication within a short period of time (usually 15 minutes). Chest pain of a longer duration or pain appearing with a lower level of effort than before, even at rest, should be considered unstable angina Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top Angina affects approximately 3% to 5% of the population in the U.S. The most common cause is coronary artery disease (CAD). In CAD, blockages in the coronary arteries, called plaques, prevent an adequate amount of blood from reaching the heart muscle. Situations that require increased blood flow to the heart may cause angina in people with CAD. These include exercise , heavy meals, and stress The risk factors for CAD (which in turn causes angina) include the following: Male gender Cigarette smoking High cholesterol levels (in particular, high

It is one of the leading causes of death in America. It can lead to angina, a heart attack, or congestive heart failure. The odds of dying from CAD today are much less than they were 40 years ago. This is because we have learned about the factors that increase risk of the disease. Some of these factors can be prevented. ... Return to top

    Extractions: Search NYP Heart Search all of NYP Coronary Artery Disease Coronary artery disease (CAD) or coronary atherosclerosis involves the progressive narrowing of the arteries that nourish the heart muscle. Often there are no symptoms, but if one or more of these arteries become severely narrowed, angina (chest pain) may develop during exercise, stress, or other times when the heart muscle is not getting enough blood. This page contains information about: Coronary artery disease is caused by a buildup of fatty plaque along the artery walls. These deposits are composed mostly of cholesterol, other lipids, and fibrous tissue, such as collagen. A coronary artery must be narrowed to less than 30 percent of its original size before there is a serious reduction in blood flow to the heart muscle served by the vessel. Coronary artery disease appears to be a lifelong process in some people, beginning at an early age and progressing slowly until the vessels become so narrow that the heart muscle no longer gets adequate nourishment. The underlying cause is unknown, although it is seen most frequently in people who live in developed industrialized nations.

    Extractions: BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS. There is ample evidence that frequent fish consumption or supplementation with fish oils markedly reduces the risk of coronary heart disease, sudden cardiac death, and heart attacks in men. Up until now there has been little work done to see if the same holds true for women. Researchers at the Harvard Public School of Health have just released the results of a major study aimed at remedying this situation. BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS. Sudden cardiac death kills about 250,000 Americans every year and half of them have no known cardiovascular disease when they are suddenly struck down. Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital and the Harvard School of Public Health now report that men with a high intake of oils from fatty fish (eicosapentaenoic acid [EPA] and docosahexaenoic acid [DHA]) have an 81 per cent lower risk of sudden cardiac death than do men with a low intake. Their study involved a group of 15,000 male physicians aged 40 to 82 years when they enrolled in the study. Over a 17-year follow-up period 94 men with no known cardiovascular disease died suddenly from heart failure (sudden cardiac death). Blood samples taken from the men at enrollment were analyzed for fatty acids and the results compared to those obtained from 184 controls. The average age of both controls and cases was 58 years.

Weight Management Heart attacks and strokes are the most obvious consequence of damaged arteries and increased clotting of blood. The main event of a heart attack is the occlusion by a sudden blood clot of one or more blood vessels supplying the heart muscle. When blood flow is critically short, muscle cells die. This is called a myocardial infarct and the clotting event a thrombosis . Thrombosis occurs in arteries narrowed by fatty lesions in the arterial walls, a process known as atherosclerosis. Stephen Gislason MD Aging men and women are having more heart attacks and strokes. Cardiovascular deaths are rising for the first time since 1980. In the USA alone 1.5 million people have heart attacks every year at a cost of $51.6 billion (1993 data). The reports cardiovascular diseases killed 954,138 in the US in 1993. Stroke deaths rose to 150,000. And the number of people treated in the hospital for cardiovascular diseases rose to 5.7 million. One explanation is that the population at risk is becoming more sedentary with an increase in obesity. Their food supply is clearly suspect and it is not just the fat in the diet. These arterial problems with different and complex origins link to the diets and lifestyle popular in Europe and North America and occur less often among physically active, vegetable-eating populations who seldom eat dairy products, meat, and other high-protein, high-fat foods.
