4. Introduction To heart disease

5. Definition : A structural or functional abnormality of the heart, or of the blood vessels supplying the heart, that impairs its normal function.

7. Types of heart disease Coronary heart disease Cardiomyopathy Cardiovascular disease Ischaemic heart disease Heart failure Hypertensive heart disease Inflammatory heart disease Valvular heart disease

8. What are the risk factors for heart disease? Risk factors Obesitysmoking Hyper - tension Diabetes

9. Coronary heart disease Coronary heart disease refers to the failure of the coronary circulation to supply adequate circulation to cardiac muscle and surrounding tissue

10. Symptoms: affect the blood vessels. affect the heart muscle itself. Cardiovascular disease is any of a number of specific diseases that affect the heart itself and/or the blood vessel system, especially the veins and arteries leading to and from the heart

11. Heart failure Heart failure, also called congestive heart failure (or CHF), and congestive cardiac failure (CCF), is a condition that can result from any structural or functional cardiacdisorder that impairs the ability of the heart to fill with or pump a sufficient amount ofblood throughout the body. Therefore leading to the heart and body's failure. cardiacdisorderheartbloodheart Cor pul monale, a failure of the right side of the heart Cor pul monale

12. Hypertensive heart disease Hypertensive heart disease is heart disease caused by high blood pressure, especially localised high blood pressure. Conditions that can be caused by hypertensive heart disease include: Left ventricular hypertrophy Coronary heart disease (Congestive) heart failure Hypertensive cardio myopathy Cardiac arrhythmias

13. Heart disease facts Coronary artery disease is the most common cause of death in the United States. The testing strategy to confirm the diagnosis and plan appropriate treatment needs to be individualized for each patient diagnosed with heart disease.

15. Risk factors Age :age is an important risk factor in developing cardiovascular diseases. It is estimated that 82 percent of people who die of coronary heart disease are 65. Aging is also associated with changes in the mechanical and structural properties of the vascular wall, which leads to the loss of arterial elasticity.

16. Gender > Men are at greater risk of heart disease than women.

17. Air pollution Effect of air pollution.
