Heart Disease by Dr Rob Hicks What is it? What happens? Why does it happen? ... Contacts What is it? The heart is a powerful muscular pump that keeps the body supplied with the oxygen it needs. As with any pump things can go wrong. It may get tired and inefficient through over work or stutter because of problems with its electrical supply. The heart too needs a good supply of oxygen and suffers if it doesn't get enough. What happens? If the heart doesn't get as much oxygen as it needs the result is chest pain, called angina. If the supply to part of the heart is cut off the result is a heart attack, called a myocardial infarction, or even sudden death. Too many men die everyday from heart attacks, often before they've even reached retirement age. Why does it happen? Over time the arteries become furred up or narrowed by fat deposited inside them. Being male; coming from an Asian or Afro-Caribbean background; or having someone in the family with heart problems makes this more likely. Unfortunately these risk factors can't be changed. Eating a high fat diet, not exercising enough, being

Emory study finds mental health and heart disease tightly linked
Attaining and sustaining good mental health is just as vital as other factors, such as exercise and diet, in the prevention of cardiovascular disease, especially for women over the age of 45, according to a study by Emory University sociologist Corey Keyes published this month in the journal Aging and Mental Health. Using national survey data, Keyes' study examined the prevalence of mental health issues among people with cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death in the United States. In investigating linkages between the two, Keyes used a measure of mental health as a "complete state" that looked beyond episodes of mental illness to also incorporate the subjective well-being of people, and how well they are functioning and flourishing in life. The study found that cardiovascular disease was lowest in adults who were the most mentally healthy, and higher among adults with major depressive episodes, minor depression and moderate mental health. The relationship between cardiovascular disease and mental health was the same for age and sex, except for females between the ages of 45 and 74, where mental health issues under his "complete state" measure were much more prevalent. Previous research has found major depression and stress to be contributing factors for, and a consequence of, cardiovascular disease, Keyes says. Although good mental health traditionally has meant the absence of mental illnesses like depression, health care professionals, in treating patients with cardiovascular disease, "should view and evaluate mental health as more than merely the absence of psychopathology, and look at the full picture of how their patients are coping and functioning in life," he says

Overview Symptoms Treatment Prevention Definition:
Heart disease involves any disorder that affects the heart's ability to function normally. The most common cause of heart disease is narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart itself. Some patients are born with abnormalities (congenital heart disease). Other causes include the following:
  • Abnormal function of the heart valves Abnormal electrical rhythm of the heart Weakening of the heart's pumping function caused by infection or toxins
Various forms of heart disease include: See also chest pain

  • In July of 1998, the American Academy of Periodontology launched an effort to educate the public about new findings which support what dental professionals had long suspected: Infections in the mouth can play havoc elsewhere in the body. Since July of 1998, evidence has continued to mount to support these links. While more research needs to be done to say definitively that people with periodontal disease are at higher risk for developing heart disease, stroke, uncontrolled diabetes, preterm births and respiratory disease, periodontists do know that periodontal disease is a bacterial infection, and all infections are cause for concern.

    The adult congenital heart disease clinic specializes in patients who were born with congenital heart defects and are now adults facing a range of challenges. Although most will have undergone corrective surgery, some may not have been previously treated, or may have recently discovered or complex residual conditions requiring therapy involving drugs, interventional procedures, or surgery. Additional attention is directed to new rhythm disturbances, heart failure, the possible need for pacemakers, and the cardiac concerns of adulthood such as pregnancy, as well as management of hypertension and cholesterol.
    Commonly encountered situations include:
    • Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot Mustard procedures Fontan operations "Switch" operations Congenital valvular abnormalities Pulmonary hypertension Cyanotic heart disease
    T he clinic has affiliated subspecialists with an interest in adult congenital heart disease within the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, and the Division of Pediatric Cardiology.

    What is CHD (Coronary Heart Disease)?
    CHD is the single largest killer of American males and females.
    About every 29 seconds an American will suffer a coronary event. This year an estimated 1.1 million Americans will have a new or recurrent coronary attack. At least 250,000 people a year die of CHD within 1 hour of the onset of symptoms and before they reach a hospital. Twelve million people alive today have a history of heart attack, angina pectoris (chest pain) or both. Follow these links to learn more: Back to top
