    Ischemic Heart Disease
    while the other heart

    Types of Cardiovascular Disease

    Arteriosclerosis – a condition causing


    the arteries to harden and thicken.
    Some types are natural to growing old.

    Atherosclerosis – type of
    arteriosclerosis where deposited fat
    hardens and becomes plaque on
    arterial walls. Plaque build-up can
    begin as early as two years old.
    Types of Cardiovascular Disease

    Coronary Heart Disease - coronary arteries


    (pathway of blood to the heart muscles)
    are narrowed or blocked; a disease of the
    coronary vessels and not the heart.

    Major Risk Factors for Coronary Heart Disease


    Smoking Age
    Diabetes Obesity
    Hypertension Physical Inactivity
    Cholesterol
    Types of Cardiovascular Disease

    Heart Attack – cardiac


    muscle failure due to lack of
    blood flow to the heart. Signs
    include painful pressure in
    the center of the chest
    spreading to the shoulders,
    neck and jaw ,
    lightheadedness, sweating,
    nausea, and shortness of
    breath
    Types of Cardiovascular Disease

    Angina Pectoris – Chest pain from


    narrowed coronary arteries due to
    inadequate oxygen for the heart.
    Angina attack usually lasts less than
    five minutes.
    Types of Cardiovascular Disease

    Rheumatic fever – the


    immune system attacks the
    heart and can cause fever,
    weakness, and damage to
    its valves. It is common
    among teens and results to a
    permanent damage known
    as rheumatic heart disease.
    Types of Cardiovascular Disease

    Heart Rhythm
    Abnormalities/Arrhythmia –
    irregular heart rhythm (i.e.,
    bradycardia, tachycardia,
    palpitation) brought about by
    faulty electrical conduction
    system that is worsened by
    uncontrolled stress levels and
    high caffeine intake.
    Types of Cardiovascular Disease

    Congestive Heart Failure –


    the heart is not able or below
    its normal capacity to pump
    blood , causing liquid to
    accumulate in the lungs and
    other areas of the body.
    Reducing salt and salty foods
    help manage this condition.
    These are some things that you can do to have a healthy
    lifestyle
