Angioplasty (PTCA) and stents Angioplasty (or PTCA) is a catheterization procedure in which blocked coronary arteries are unblocked using balloons, tiny drills, laser or other techniques. Stents are tiny metal scaffolds that are applied to the inside of a diseased artery, then expanded to hold the artery open. Aortic aneurysm and vascular disease Aortic aneurysm, or dilation of the aorta, is responsible for thousands of deaths each year. Other forms of vascular heart disease also cause substantial mortality and loss of function. Arrhythmias and their treatment Cardiac arrhythmias, or heart rhythm disturbances, can be entirely benign, or highly lethal. Telling the difference, and knowing how aggressively to treat, can present a true challenge.

Over ten years ago, the two-time Nobel prize Laureate, Dr Linus Pauling and his associate Dr Matthias Rath, advocated and published a definitive thesis on the root cause, treatment, and actual cure for all forms of cardiovascular disease (CVD), including congestive heart failure, heart disease, and stroke. Today, cardiovascular related health problems together comprise fully one half of all causes of death in the US. Pauling and Rath's brilliant analysis of CVD is absolutely compelling and amply supported by numerous epidemiological and clinical studies. His unified theory of CVD constitutes one of the greatest breakthroughs in modern science, and yet has been almost completely ignored by the mainstream medical establishment, and received almost no press.

Beating-Heart Surgery May Reduce Complications, Deaths In order to provide more definitive conclusions about beating-heart surgery, Dr. G. Hossein Almassi and colleagues are taking part in a nationwide study of coronary bypass patients.

Subscribe now >> CRP Test for Heart Disease Risk: Valuable, But Not Definitive What’s creating all the buzz is a test for a substance called C-reactive protein, or CRP. It’s not a new test; C-reactive protein was first identified in the 1930s. Nor is it yet the definitive breakthrough in diagnosing risk for coronary artery disease in every patient, says cardiologist David S. Marks, MD The CRP test, which has been used to detect areas of acute inflammation from diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and rheumatic fever, is increasingly being utilized in cardiac care. “Patients should know that the C-reactive protein test is not actually a diagnostic test for coronary artery disease but rather a non-specific marker for inflammation,” he says. Even if the test results are positive for inflammation, he notes, the inflammation could be triggered by other factors such as arthritis or an infection; or it could signal the potential for future heart disease. Some researchers think inflammation can trigger heart attacks by affecting the walls of diseased blood vessels. “There’s no question that C-reactive protein has moved beyond a test for the presence of rheumatic disease,” says Dr. Marks. “We keep learning more about the impact of inflammation and heart disease, but we still don’t know if the C-reactive protein mechanism has a causative effect.”

What if changing my diet doesn't help? Coronary Heart Disease: Reducing Your Risk Printer-friendly version Email this article What is coronary heart disease? Coronary heart disease (CHD) is sometimes called coronary artery disease. A coronary artery is a blood vessel that carries blood to your heart. You arteries are like narrow tubes. A fatty substance called plaque can build up in your arteries, blocking or slowing the flow of blood and oxygen through them. This can happen in any artery, but when it happens in the coronary arteries, your heart doesn't get the blood and oxygen it needs to work properly. Coronary heart disease can lead to serious health problems, including angina (pain or pressure in the chest) and heart attack. Return to top What causes CHD? Both men and women can get CHD. It can be hereditary (run in your family). It might also develop as you get older and plaque builds up in your arteries over the years. You may get CHD if you are overweight or if you have high blood pressure or diabetes. High cholesterol may also lead to CHD (see below). CHD can stem from making unhealthy choices such as smoking, eating a high-fat diet and not exercising enough. Return to top What is cholesterol?
