Ischemic heart disease: Causes, prevention, symptoms and more
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, ischemic heart disease is also known as coronary artery disease or coronary heart disease. It is caused due to the formation of plaque in the walls of the arteries that supply blood to the heart and other body parts.
Common symptoms of the disease include angina, chest pain, and discomfort. The first clue to the disease is usually a heart attack, and the symptoms of the same include chest pain, weakness, lightheadedness, nausea, cold sweat, pain or discomfort in the arms or shoulders, and breathing problems.
Those who are at risk of developing the disease include ones who are overweight, are involved in a lot of physical activity, follow an unhealthy diet and smoke tobacco. This might happen if someone has a family history of heart disease at an early age of 50 years or younger.
The disease can be easily diagnosed with the help of an electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, exercise stress test, chest X-ray, cardiac catheterization, coronary angiogram, and coronary artery calcium scan.
Cardiac rehab can be helpful in preventing another cardiac event. Cardiac rehab is a supervised program that includes physical activity, education about healthy living like healthy eating, taking medicine as prescribed and ways to quit smoking, and counseling to find a way to relieve stress and improve mental health.
