Heart Disease

Heart disease, also known as cardiovascular disease (CVD), encompasses a broad range of conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels. These diseases can include coronary artery disease, heart failure, and other conditions impacting the heart’s function.

Types of Heart Disease:

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): Narrowing or blockage of the arteries supplying blood to the heart, often due to plaque buildup. 

Heart Failure: The heart’s inability to pump enough blood to meet the body’s needs. 

Arrhythmias:
 
Irregular heartbeats, which can be too slow, too fast, or irregular. 

Congenital Heart Disease:
 
Heart defects present at birth. 

Cardiomyopathy:
 
Disease of the heart muscle, making it harder for the heart to pump blood. 

Heart Valve Disease:
 
Conditions affecting the heart’s valves, which control blood flow. 

Aortic Aneurysm:
 
A bulge in the aorta, the main artery carrying blood from the heart. 

Pericarditis:
