Stable Ischemic Heart Disease

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2019
Stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) is a leading cause of death in the United States and many other countries. The defining pathobiology is an imbalance between the metabolic demands of the myocardium and its oxygen supply, which most often results from coronary artery atherosclerosis.

Stable Ischemic Heart Disease

Heart Failure Clinics, 2014
Classical angina refers to typical substernal discomfort triggered by effort or emotions, relieved with rest or nitroglycerin. The well-accepted pathogenesis is an imbalance between oxygen supply and demand. Goals in therapy are improvement in quality of life by limiting the number and severity of attacks, protection against future lethal events, and ...

Ischemic Heart Disease and Heart Weight

Cardiology, 2008
Separate weights for heart ventricle walls and interventricular septa were analyzed in 110 hearts with autopsy findings of ischemic heart disease (coronary atherosclerosis, recent or old myocardial infarcts) and with no other cardiac or systemic causes of cardiac enlargement.

Patients with Ischemic Heart Disease

Medical Clinics of North America, 2013
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) occurs when myocardial oxygen supply is not adequate for myocardial oxygen demand. Patients with IHD who are undergoing surgery are at risk for development of perioperative cardiac events (PCEs), and this risk depends on the type of surgery, the presence of clinical risk factors, and functional status of the patients ...

Imaging of ischemic heart disease

European Radiology, 2002
Despite advances in the understanding and treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy, characterized by extensive coronary artery disease and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, the prognosis remains poor with only a 50-60% 5-year survival rate. The composition of atherosclerotic lesions is currently regarded as being more important than the degree of stenosis

Angioscopy and ischemic heart disease

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2002
Angioscopy allows direct visualization of the coronary artery lumen and provides detailed information regarding the surface characteristics of the vessel wall and specific lesions causing acute coronary syndromes. Disruption of a plaque, ulceration, tears, fissures, lipid-rich or fibrous lesions, and luminal or mural thrombus can be readily detected in

Ischemic heart disease

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2000
The goals of treatment of ischemic heart disease are to relieve symptoms, prevent unstable angina or myocardial infarction, and prolong life. Over the past four decades, significant advances in therapy have occurred, initially involving revascularization procedures. Although coronary bypass surgery and percutaneous catheter-based interventions continue
