Treat Heart Disease

Although the term cardiovascular disease refers to a disorder of the cardiovascular system, it is usually associated with atherosclerosis, also known as arterial disease. It is considered the leading cause of deaths in the world, taking 17.1 million lives a year. There are only a few factors that are non-modifiable, these being the persons age, gender, family history and their race and ethnicity. Although there are non-modifiable risk factors, there are multiple multiple risk factors that are modifiable that anyone can use to prevent getting any type of cardiovascular disease. These people just need to have the motivation to be able to change themselves and their lifestyles in order to better

of the study is to determine the benefits and safety of the drug called Liraglutide in patients with

The health objective I have decided to study is cardiovascular disease. Heart disease is one of the top five causes of death in Summit County. According to the research, it is the number one cause out of the top five. Summit County shares the same top five causes of death as the nation (Summit County Public Health website, 2016).

In conclusion, there are many ways to prevent heart disease. Some ways is to maintain a healthy weight and diet, and exercise regularly, and do not smoke. Increasing your physical activity to at least 30 minutes a week would reduce a person’s risk. If a person has a high blood pressure or high cholesterol, they should be monitoring and keeping it under control. The treatments for heart disease may be prescribe medication to treat the disease. Other treatments, changing your lifestyle can help a person lower their risk of complications. Surgical procedures to help restore blood flow to the

Heart failure is a chronic, debilitating disease affecting 5.1 million Americans. It is the most common cause of hospital admissions for Medicare beneficiaries, and is the diagnosis associated with most readmissions (Sterne, Grossman, Migliardi, & Swallow, 2014). Lower quality of life is experienced by patients with heart failure. Mortality rates remain high with about 30% of patients dying within the first year after diagnosis (Vellone et al., 2013). In the U.S. heart failure has become a major public health concern. The number of annual hospitalizations for individuals with heart failure increased from 2.4 million to 3.6 million from 1990 to 1999 (Veroff et al., 2012). Therefore, it is imperative to develop interventions to better

For my proposal, I would like to start by presenting a Heart Disease Quiz to see if people are aware or have knowledge about Heart disease. This will allow those to understand why Heart Disease is a serious and very dangerous disease and it is essential to understand and how to protect our children from this treacherous disease.

Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is when blood flow to the heart is temporarily or permanently blocked. This is problematic to the wellbeing of one’s heart, because blood transports the materials (nutrients, minerals, oxygen) that are required for heart muscles (or any muscle) to contract and sustain the life of those cells. Caption #1 shows the muscles in the heart that are affected by CHD. Coronary Heart Disease can be caused by the buildup of plaque (cholesterol) in the arteries which direct blood to the heart, and by the increase in blood pressure.

Cardiovascular diseases are diseases which involve the heart or blood vessels, they are in fact the leading causes of death and disability in the world. Cardiovascular diseases include coronary artery disease, or ischaemic heart disease (heart attack), cerebrovascular disease (stroke) and diseases of the aorta and arteries including hypertension and peripheral vascular disease (Mendis, Puska, & Norrving, 2011). They are all due to a disease known as atherosclerosis which affects arteries (George, & Johnson, 2010). There are also other cardiovascular disease that are not related to atherosclerosis, for instance, congenital heart disease caused by abnormal structures of the heart existing at birth, rheumatic heart disease due to Type II hypersensitivity reaction following streptococcal bacteria infection, cardiomyopathies (disorders of the heart muscle) and cardiac arrhythmias (disorders of electrical conduction system of the heart). Among all the cardiovascular diseases, coronary artery disease and cerebrovascular disease are the first two major contributors to global mortality (Mendis, Puska, & Norrving, 2011).

Heart diseases also known as cardiovascular diseases are various conditions types that may interfere with the function of the heart. These condition types include atherosclerotic also known as coronary artery heart disease which is shown to affect arteries leading to the heart, the heart valve disease which affects the functionality of valves in regulating in and out of the blood flow to the heart. Cardiomyopathy affects the squeezing of the heart muscles. Arrhythmias also called the heart rhythm disturbances affects the electrical conductions. There are also heart infections which are resulted by structural problems of the heart which usually develops before birth. (Wedro)

There are several types of diseases of the heart. However, no matter what these diseases are – congestive heart failure (CHF), heart attack, coronary artery disease (CAD), or any others – they still have similarities when it comes to their warning signs and symptoms. The symptoms of heart problems are very important because it will tell you that something is wrong, and there is something that you need to consult with your doctor about.

Heart Disease, also known as Cardiovascular Disease is abnormal function of the heart or blood vessels. There are many different types of heart disease. “Heart Disease” is just a word that describes the many other conditions and diseases there is that can affect our heart. The causes of heart disease are stressing, eating too much fatty foods, stressing, drinking a lot of alcohol, and not being active. Coronary Heart Disease is the leading heart disease in the United States. Coronary arties surround the heart and provides the heart with the energy and oxygen it needs (Lehnardt, 2016). Almost 2,500 Americans die before they can get to the hospital. You can prevent heart disease.

My goal is to become a doctor and do some research on heart disease. I have always been interested in the human body since I always wondered how it works. I was primarily interested in the heart. Heart disease is one of the leading causes of deaths for humans and I want to know why.

John Lennon of the Beetles rock group proclaimed they were “more popular than Jesus” (Sullivan 313). The hippie movement was roaring strong, preaching their ideas of, peace, love, sex and drugs. Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD) and marijuana flowed free (Tendler) in nineteen hundred and sixty-six. Referred to as the good ole days, however medically speaking there was ample room for improvement. Heart disease accounted for thirty percent of the deaths, followed by cancer running at fifteen percent. Strokes were second on the list at eleven percent. Medically speaking, today is a much better time than fifty years ago based on the top three causes of death then vs now.

I have researched that scientist have proven patients diagnosed with the coronary heart disease cannot be cured. Although scientists haven’t found a cure yet, due to myself researching about the disease they state in the 4th stanza they have found out how individuals may reduce risks. They’re a couple of ways to prevent heart attacks or the other issues e.g. exercising, healthy dieting or quitting a bad smoke or alcohol habit. These small changes in their life can make a significant difference for coronary heart disease. If the patient does not want to follow through with this option they may chose the other option which is getting a surgery, this will put them in more pain but the heart attacks will reduce.

Lastly, weight management is also an important component to reduce the risk of heart disease in women. Weight maintaining a healthy weight and BMI reduces the risk of not only heart disease but also many other chronic diseases. This can be accomplished through nutritional counseling and lifestyle modifications. Teaching portion control, recipe modification and healthy exercise to increase likelihood of behavior modification and produce the best results for your
