Coronary artery disease is the most common underlying cause of cardiovascular disability and death. Men are affected about four times as frequently as women; before the age of 40 the ratio is eight to one. Other predisposing factors are lack of blood supply; spasms in the coronary vessels, which cause and/or are caused by hypertension; diabetes; high cholesterol levels; adverse physical reactions to mental stress; and heavy cigarette smoking. The primary symptom is angina pectoris , a pain that radiates in the upper left quadrant of the body due to the lack of oxygen reaching the heart. A myocardial infarction (heart attack) is precipitated when the interior passage of an artery, usually already narrowed by atherosclerosis (see arteriosclerosis ), is completely blocked by

Coronary Artery Disease
Overview
What is coronary artery disease? Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common form of heart disease and top cause of death in the United States. This condition occurs when the coronary arteries, the blood vessels that supply oxygen-rich blood to your heart muscle, gradually become narrowed or blocked by plaque deposits. The plaque deposits decrease the space through which blood can flow. Poor blood flow can "starve" the heart muscle and lead to chest pain. A heart attack results when blood flow is completely blocked, usually by a blood clot forming over a plaque that has broken open (ruptured). What causes coronary artery disease? Coronary artery disease is caused by the buildup of plaque on the inside of your coronary arteries. Plaque is made up of excess cholesterol, calcium, and other substances in your blood that, over time, build up on the inside walls of your coronary arteries and other arteries. This process is called hardening of the arteries, or atherosclerosis . (See an illustration of atherosclerosis .) In many people, plaque may begin to form in childhood and gradually develops over a lifetime.

by Rosalyn Carson-DeWitt, MD Definition Causes Risk Factors ... Prevention
Definition
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is blockage of the arteries that feed the heart muscle. If the blockage is complete, areas of the heart muscle may be damaged and/or die from lack of oxygen. This can lead to a heart attack, otherwise known as a myocardial infarction . Coronary artery disease is the most common form of heart disease. Coronary Artery Disease www.nucleusinc.com
Causes
Causes include:
  • Thickening of the walls of the arteries feeding the heart muscle Accumulation of fatty plaques within the coronary arteries Narrowing of the coronary arteries Development of a blood clot within the coronary arteries that blocks blood flow
Risk Factors
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition. Major Risk Factors:
  • Sex: Male (men have a greater risk of heart attack than women) Age: 45 and older for men; 55 and older for women

What is coronary artery disease?
When the arteries that carry blood to the heart become blocked or weakened, they cannot deliver sufficient blood to the heart, resulting in coronary artery disease (CAD). Sutter Heart Institute is a leading regional center for diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease, providing advanced diagnostic testing, treatment through medication, interventional catheterization, and cardiovascular surgery to more than 4,000 patients each year.
What are the warning signs and symptoms of coronary artery disease?
Angina (also referred to as chest pain) is a warning sign of coronary artery disease. Do not ignore this symptom, as it is often a sign of an impending heart attack. If you or someone you know is experiencing angina, immediately call 9-1-1 to get to an emergency room immediately.
It is important to understand that men and women experience angina differently. These differences are described below: Men typically experience the following common warning signs of a heart attack:
  • Severe to moderate chest pain Dizziness Shortness of breath Nausea Radiating pain in the arms and chest
Women may have symptoms that differ greatly from men. While chest pain is often a key warning sign of a heart attack

Heart Disease Coronary Artery Disease Overview Format for Printing 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. The incidence of CAD is lower in Asian countries, particularly Japan, where diets are low in saturated fat and cholesterol. Main Menu: Overview of CAD Coronary artery disease (CAD) usually results from atherosclerosis, a condition that occurs when arteries become narrow and hardened due to cholesterol plaque build-up. Further narrowing of the arteries may result from thrombi (blood clots) that form on the surfaces of plaques. Angina (chest pain) or dyspnea (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. Statistics show CAD to be the leading cause of death among both men and women in the United States and in Europe. For example, approximately 12,800,000 Americans suffer from CAD and nearly 500,000 Americans die from heart attacks caused by CAD. Over 12 million Americans have a history of myocardial infarction or angina or both.

Heart Disease Can Be Reversed Maryanne was treated by having a stent (a metallic spring device) inserted in the artery that was 90% blocked. She was treated with the standard assortment of drugs and given the standard low-fat, low-cholesterol diet to follow. Maryanne knew this treatment comes with no promises and the incidence of worsening heart disease is common. Since she was interested in finding alternative treatments for her heart disease, she investigated the low-carbohydrate approach as recommended by Dr. Robert C. Atkins, and Drs. Michael and Mary Dan Eades. She understood the low-carbohydrate diet was approximately 70% fat on a calorie basis, just the opposite to the diet recommended by her heart physician. Maryanne began the low-carbohydrate diet immediately. She took the blood thinning drug and the cholesterol lowering statin drug prescribed but quickly developed unpleasant side effects she attributed to the cholesterol lowing drug.

Coronary Heart Disease
Coronary Heart Disease Overview
Coronary heart disease (CHD), also called coronary artery disease, affects about 14 million men and women in the United States. Disease develops when a combination of fatty material, calcium, and scar tissue (plaque) builds up in the arteries that supply the heart with blood. Through these arteries, called the coronary arteries, the heart muscle (myocardium) gets the oxygen and other nutrients it needs to do its work, which is pumping blood.
  • The plaque often narrows the artery so that the heart doesn't get enough blood.
    This slowing of blood flow causes chest pain , or angina
    If plaque completely blocks blood flow, it may cause a heart attack (myocardial infarction) or a fatal rhythm disturbance (sudden cardiac arrest).
    A major cause of death and disability, coronary heart disease claims more lives in the United States than the next 7 leading causes of death combined.
The heart consists of 4 chambers: an atrium and a ventricle on the right, and an atrium and ventricle on the left.

Coronary artery disease, the atherosclerotic narrowing of the arteries that supply blood to the heart, is one of the most common chronic diseases in the United States. One million Americans develop angina or acute myocardial infarction annually; approximately 20% of American deaths are caused by coronary artery disease. For those who survive, the sequelae of coronary artery disease, including congestive heart failure, chronic angina and cardiac arrhythmia, are serious threats to long term survival and quality of life. This chapter examines the variability in treatment of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan members with coronary artery disease. It focuses on:
  • The use of diagnostic testing
  • The use of therapeutic interventions
  • The association between diagnostic testing and treatment
