III PHARM D
2. CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE
CAUSES
• It is a condition in which the coronary artery gets plaque
in the inner walls thus causing rigidity and narrowing of
artery.
• This restricts blood flow to heart muscle thus causing
hypoxia.
- Smoking

- High stress
- Unhealthy diet
3. SYMPTOMS
DIAGNOSIS
- Chest pain
- Shortness of breadth

- Electrocardiogram (ECG)
- CT scan
- Echocardiogram
- Stress test

5. LEFT VENTRICULAR FAILURE
CAUSES
• Heart failure is a state in which the heart cannot provide
sufficient cardiac output to satisfy the needs of the body.
• Left ventricular failure occurs when the ability of
ventricles to pump blood to the body decreases which
leads to left ventricular remodeling.
- Alcohol
- Heart attack
- Hypertension
- Hypothyroidism
- Leaking or narrow heart valves
- Volume overload
