Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Arteriosclerosis and Coronary Heart Disease (CHD)".

This medical PowerPoint presentation talks about Arteriosclerosis and Coronary Heart Disease (CHD).

Arteriosclerosis refers to a group of diseases characterized by the thickening and hardening of the walls of the arteries. This condition can reduce blood flow to vital organs, such as the heart, brain, and kidneys, and increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Coronary heart disease (CHD), also known as coronary artery disease, is a type of cardiovascular disease that occurs when the arteries that supply blood to the heart become narrow or blocked. This can lead to chest pain (angina), heart attacks, and other complications.

Arteriosclerosis is a common underlying factor that contributes to the development of CHD. When the arteries become hardened and thickened, it makes it more difficult for blood to flow through them, which can lead to the buildup of plaque (a fatty substance) on the artery walls. This plaque buildup can eventually cause the arteries to become narrow or blocked, leading to CHD.

Risk factors for arteriosclerosis and CHD include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, obesity, physical inactivity, and a family history of heart disease. Lifestyle modifications, such as eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, quitting smoking, and managing stress, can help reduce the risk of developing these conditions. Additionally, medications and medical procedures, such as statins and angioplasty, may be used to manage or treat arteriosclerosis and CHD.

Transcript

Slide 1-

Arteriosclerosis and Coronary Heart Disease (CHD)
Slide 2-

Arteriosclerosis Disease of the arteries characterized by thickening, loss of elasticity and calcification of arterial walls Resulting in decreased blood supply particularly to the cerebrum and lower extremities Often develops with: aging hypertension diabetes

Progression of Arteriosclerosis
Slide 5-

Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) Seven million Americans effected Caused by narrowing of the coronary arteries No. 1 killer of men and women in U.S. >500,000 each year > 60 million Americans have some form of coronary vascular disease (CVD) including high BP, CAD, CHD, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction and others >2,600 Americans die each day of CVD, i.e., 1 death/33 sec ~ $299 billion cost to the U.S.

Risk factors High blood pressure (hypertension) High blood cholesterol Smoking Obesity Physical inactivity Diabetes Stress (?) Controllable

Risk Factors (cont’d) Gender Heredity Age Uncontrollable
Slide 9-

Major Risk Factors:The Big Three Hypertension High cholesterol Cigarette smoking All three increase risk factor eight times AND…. we should add LACK OF EXERCISE

Slide 11-

Hypertension Commonly called high blood pressure Systolic and diastolic measurements Normal systolic - 110-130 mmHg Normal diastolic - 70-90 mm Hg
Slide 12-

Symptoms of CHD Chest pain (angina) Shortness of breath Heaviness, tightness, pain, burning, pressure or squeezing behind the breastbone or in the arms, neck, or jaws Pain may vary Perhaps no pain
Slide 13-

Cause & Consequencess of CHD Lack of oxygen due to ischemia (lack of blood supply) Narrowing of coronary arteries Heart responds with angina Finally, heart attack (myocardial infarction local ischemia usually due to thrombus (clot) or embolus (clot that has moved from another site and lodged in a smaller vessel) Possible permanent damage
Slide 14-

Diagnosis of CHD Electrocardiogram (EKG) Stress test Nuclear scanning Coronary angiography
Slide 15-

Treatment for CHD Lifestyle changes Medication Surgery

Lifestyle Changes Change of habits Low fat diet Lower weight Increase exercise Stop smoking

Medications to Treat CHD Beta blockers Nitroglycerine and other nitrates Calcium-channel blockers Aspirin Cholesterol-lowering drugs lovastatin, colestipol, cholestyramine, etc Digitalis ACE inhibitors Diuretics
Slide 20-

Surgery to Treat CHD Balloon angioplasty Atherectomy Laser angioplasty Stent insertion Coronary artery bypass operation (CABG)

Gender Disparity Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) more common in men Women have higher mortality rates Older and sicker when first heart attack occurs Less aggressively treated than men Failure to recognize symptoms in timely fashion MI in young, healthy women is rare Occurrence greater in those who use OC Age 30-39: 2.7X; 40-44: 5.7X; (complilcated by cigarette use)

Effects of Smoking For adult males, smoking has declined from 53 % to 38% For women, remains at 30% Has increased for younger and teenaged women Heavy smoker = 20- 30 cigs/day
Slide 26-

Effects of Smoking (cont’d) Cigs contain about 2000 compounds Main harmful are tar, nicotine and CO Tar contains hydrocarbons and other carcinogenic substances Nicotine causes release of epinephrine and norepinephrine resulting in increased HR, BP, cardiac output, stroke volume, contractility, oxygen consumption, and coronary blood flow CO reduces oxygen carrying capacity of the blood; can precipitate angina
Slide 27-

Effects of Smoking (cont’d) Contributes to development of atherosclerosis Lowers levels of HDL causes deterioration of elasticity of vessels Responsible for 20% of all deaths from heart disease Female smokers have a higher risk than male smokers

Slide 31-

Signs of Preclinical CVD Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) associated with increased CAD risk (Framingham Study) Definite LVH-EKG increased CAD risk threefold
Slide 32-

Blood and Tissue Characteristics Type O = lower cholesterol Higher cholesterol contributes to higher rate of CAD HDL:LDL (high density lipoproteins: low density lipoproteins) ratio may be more important than cholesterol level
Slide 33-

HDL High density lipoproteins seem to have protective effect against development of atherosclerosis (a form or arteriosclerosis in which deposits of yellowish plaque containing cholesterol, lipoid substances and lipophages are formed within large and medium-sized arteries) Women have higher concentrations than men Most important of all lipid risk factors Below 35 mg/dl----- 8X incidence of CAD compared to those with 65 mg/dl Moderate alcohol intake may have + effect Exercise has + effect Greater weight has a negative effect
