About This Presentation

Slide 1 - Atherosclerosis
Slide 2 - The Heart Is a muscle about the size of your fist Weighs approximately one pound Is located behind and slightly to the left of the breastbone Pumps about 5 quarts (4.7 liters) of blood every minute
Slide 3 - ppt slide no 3 content not found
Slide 4 - The function of the heart is to circulate blood throughout the body by: Pumping blood through the lungs removes carbon dioxide and refreshes the blood with oxygen The oxygenated blood is pumped to the body to provide oxygen and nutrients and to remove waste products. The coronary arteries are the blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to the heart muscle.
Slide 5 - 2 coronary arteries branch from the main aorta just above the aortic valve. “No larger than drinking straws, they divide and encircle the heart to cover its surface with a lacy network that reminded physicians of a slightly crooked crown (coronary comes from the Latin coronarius, belonging to a crown or wreath). They carry out about 130 gallons of blood through the heart muscle daily.” (Clark, 119) Blood Supply To The Heart
Slide 6 - Coronary Artery Disease Coronary artery disease is one of the most common and serious effects of aging. Fatty deposits build up in blood vessel walls and narrow the passageway for the movement of blood. The resulting condition, called atherosclerosis often leads to eventual blockage of the coronary arteries and a “heart attack”.

Slide 8 - “Cardiovascular disease claimed 39.4 percent of all deaths or 1 of every 2.5 deaths in the United States in 2000. CVD was about 60 percent of “total mention mortality.” This means that of over 2,400,000 deaths from all causes, CVD was listed as a primary or contributing cause on about 1,415,000 death certificates.” (American Heart Disease) Mortality
Slide 9 - ppt slide no 9 content not found
Slide 10 - Since 1900, CVD has been the No. 1 killer in the United States every year but 1918. Nearly 2,600 Americans die of CVD each day, an average of 1 death every 33 seconds. CVD claims more lives each year than the next 5 leading causes of death combined, which are cancer, chronic lower respiratory diseases, accidents, diabetes mellitus, influenza and pneumonia. Almost 150,000 Americans killed by CVD each year are under age 65. Bet you didn't know....
Slide 11 - Signs and Symptoms None: This is referred to as silent ischemia. Blood to your heart may be restricted due to CAD, but you don’t feel any effects. Chest pain: If your coronary arteries can’t supply enough blood to meet the oxygen demands of your heart, the result may be chest pain called angina. Shortness of breath: Some people may not be aware they have CAD until they develop symptoms of congestive heart failure- extreme fatigue with exertion, shortness of breath and swelling in their feet and ankles. Heart attack: Results when an artery to your heart muscle becomes completely blocked and the party of your heart muscles fed by that artery dies. Signs & Symptoms None Chest Pain Shortness Of Breath Heart Attack
Slide 12 - can, and does, occur in almost any artery in the body. But in the heart it’s effects can be crucial. “The body depends on a strong pumping heart to circulate life-giving blood, and this includes to the heart muscle itself. If the coronary arteries become blocked, the cardiac muscle begins to fail, and so the blood circulation decreases, which includes the circulation to the heart muscle itself.” (Thibodeau, 494) Atherosclerosis
Slide 13 - ppt slide no 13 content not found
Slide 14 - High blood cholesterol High blood pressure Smoking Obesity Lack of physical activity Causes
Slide 15 - Risk Factors Uncontrollable Sex Hereditary Race Age Controllable High blood pressure High blood cholesterol Smoking Physical activity Obesity Diabetes Stress and anger
Slide 16 - Screening and Diagnosis
Slide 17 - Other Tests Include... Blood tests: used to evaluate kidney and thyroid function as well as to check cholesterol levels and the presence of anemia. Chest X-ray: shows the size of your heart and whether there is fluid build up around the heart and lungs. Echocardiogram: shows a graphic outline of the heart’s movement Ejection fraction (EF): determines how well your heart pumps with each beat.
Slide 18 - Many people are able to manage coronary artery disease with lifestyle changes and medications. Other people with severe coronary artery disease may need angioplasty or surgery. Treatment
Slide 19 - ppt slide no 19 content not found
Slide 20 - Treatment (continued) 1) Stenting a stent is introduced into a blood vessel on a balloon catheter and advanced into the blocked area of the artery the balloon is then inflated and causes the stent to expand until it fits the inner wall of the vessel, conforming to contours as needed the balloon is then deflated and drawn back The stent stays in place permanently, holding the vessel open and improving the flow of blood.
Slide 21 - Treatment (continued) 2) Angioplasty a balloon catheter is passed through the guiding catheter to the area near the narrowing. A guide wire inside the balloon catheter is then advanced through the artery until the tip is beyond the narrowing. the angioplasty catheter is moved over the guide wire until the balloon is within the narrowed segment. balloon is inflated, compressing the plaque against the artery wall once plaque has been compressed and the artery has been sufficiently opened, the balloon catheter will be deflated and removed.
Slide 22 - Treatment (continued) 3) Bypass surgery healthy blood vessel is removed from leg, arm or chest blood vessel is used to create new blood flow path in your heart the “bypass graft” enables blood to reach your heart by flowing around (bypassing) the blocked portion of the diseased artery. The increased blood flow reduces angina and the risk of heart attack.
Slide 23 - Prevention Get regular medical checkups. Control your blood pressure. Check your cholesterol. Don’t smoke. Exercise regularly. Maintain a healthy weight. Eat a heart-healthy diet. Manage stress.
