Definition of Coronary Artery Disease
• A narrowing of the inside diameter of arteries that supply the heart with blood.
• The condition arises from the accumulation of plaque and greatly increases the risk of having a heart attack or myocardial infarction (Cooley, 1996).
![Page 30: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Modifiable Risk factors
• Pathophysiologic factors:
Hypertension Diabetes Hyperlipidemia
• Life style factors Smoking Obesity Physical
Inactivity Stress
![Page 31: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Nonmodifiable risk factors
• AGE• GENDER• RACE/ETHNIC BACKGROUND• HEREDITY
![Page 32: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Emerging Risk Factors• Homocysteine= blocks NO production < elastic Blood vessels permit plaque
formationTTT= B complex Folic acid, Niacin• LDL-C = mechanical injury• Prothrombotic state (e.g., high fibrinogen or plasminogen activator inhibitor–1 in
the blood)• Proinflammatory state (e.g., elevated C-reactive protein in the blood causes
inhibition of NO)• Low Adiponectin levels increase CRP production
![Page 33: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Five Major Risk Factors
• 1.Smoking• 2.Hypertension• 3.High cholesterol• 4.Diabetes• 5.Family History
![Page 34: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Smoking
Effects of Smoking• Roughening effect of inside diameter of
the arterial wall>formation of plaque,constriction of arteries>HPN
• Increases heart rate and produces irregular heartbeats>clots>stroke
• Decrease HDL levels and increase LDL > increase risk CAD
![Page 35: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Management of Smoking
• Quit Smoking• Avoid secondary smoke
![Page 36: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Hypertension:
• Or high blood pressure.. SBP >120 mm Hg ..DBP>80 mm Hg• Indicates a problem in the mechanism that
regulates blood pressure in the circulatory system
• “hyper” too much “tension” pressure
![Page 37: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Hypertension
Effects of HPN• [Mechanical Injury] Causes thickening or hardening
of the walls off the arteries>causes narrowing >decrease blood flow to coronary arteries>MI.
• Thickening of left ventricle >decrease Cardiac output > causes CHF
> kidney damage>Renal dialysis• In the diabetic population, HPN>retinal
damage(retinopathy)>BLINDNESS
![Page 38: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
For persons over age 50, SBP is a more important than DBP as CVD risk factor.
Starting at 115/75 mmHg, CVD risk doubles with each increment of 20/10 mmHg throughout the BP range.
Persons who are normotensive at age 55 have a 90% lifetime risk for developing HTN.
Those with SBP 120–139 mmHg or DBP 80–89 mmHg should be considered prehypertensive who require health-promoting lifestyle modifications to prevent CVD. (JNC 7, 2003)
New Features and Key Messages
![Page 39: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
New Features and Key Messages (Continued)
Thiazide-type diuretics should be initial drug therapy for most, either alone or combined with other drug classes.
Certain high-risk conditions are compelling indications for other drug classes.
Most patients will require two or more antihypertensive drugs to achieve goal BP.
If BP is >20/10 mmHg above goal, initiate therapy with two agents, one usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic. (JNC 7, 2003)

Coronary Artery Disease
![Page 62: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
• CAD is a broad term that includes stable angina pectoris and acute coronary syndromes. When blood flow through the coronary arteries is blocked, ischemia or infarction of the myocardium may result.
![Page 63: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Ischemia and Infarction
• Ischemia occurs when insufficient oxygen is supplied to meet the requirements of the myocardium
• Infarction (necrosis of the cells, cell death) occurs when sever ischemia is prolonged and irreversible damage to tissue results.
![Page 64: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Acute Coronary Syndromes• Angina- coronary ischemia- a temporary imbalance
between the coronary arteries ability to supply oxygen and the cardiac muscle’s demand for oxygen (no permanent damage to myocardial tissue).
• Stable Angina- predictable; fixed lesions
• Unstable Angina- more intense, may occur at rest or with exertion and causes marked limitations of activity. Attacks increase in intensity and pain. Includes new-onset angina, variant (Prinzmental’s) angina, pre-infarction angina and crescendo angina

Angina
• Location• Duration• Quality• Radiation• Precipitating Factors• Medication Relief
![Page 66: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Myocardial Infarction
• Irreversible necrosis due to an abrupt decrease or total cessation of coronary blood flow.– Plaque rupture– New thrombus in coronary artery
![Page 67: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Process of Infarction
• Tissue Ischemia• Hypoxemia• Autonomic Nervous System Influences• Metabolic Derangement• Acid-base imbalances• Hemodynamic disturbances• Electrolyte disturbances• Fiber stretch
![Page 68: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Zone of Infarction
• Dependent on Three Factors:– Collateral circulation– Anaerobic metabolism– Workload demands
![Page 69: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Types of Infarction• Subendocardial Infarction (non-Q wave)(multifocal areas of necrosis confined to the inner 1/3-1/2 of the
left ventricular wall. These do not show the same evolution of changes seen in a transmural MI. )
• Transmural Infarction (Q wave)(involving the entire thickness of the left ventricular wall from
endocardium to epicardium, usually the anterior free wall and posterior free wall and septum with extension into the RV wall in 15-30%).
Physiologic response = ventricular remodeling (change in shape and size of L ventricle causing decrease L V F leading to HF)
![Page 70: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Zones of Infarction
Zone of Ischemia = T-wave inversion
Zone of Injury = ST elevation
Zone of Necrosis = Abnormal Q wave

Classification of MI by Location
Inferior: Abnormalities that appear in leads II, III, and F (called the inferior leads) indicate pathology on the inferior or diaphragmatic surface of the heart.
Lateral: Leads I, F, and V5-V6 are called lateral leads. Abnormality in these leads indicates pathology on the lateral, upper surface of the heart.
Anterior: Anterior pathology is seen in leads V1-V4, and often in lead I.
Posterior: Problems on the posterior surface of the heart are difficult to diagnose using the standard 12 ECG leads. The pathology may be seen as “reflected” through V1 and V2.
Combination: Abnormalities may not be limited to one of the four areas above. Inferolateral damage will show up in a combination of the inferior and lateral leads. Anterolateral damage will be seen in both the anterior and the lateral leads.

Identify which coronary artery is affected?
[1] severe crushing chest pressure/pain/radiating to neck
[2] chest pressure/pain with radiation to L arm
[3] chest pressure radiating to the back/scapula.

Cultural Considerations• Black and Hispanic women have a higher incidence of
CAD risk than white women with comparable socioeconomic status
• Native Americans/American Indians/Alaskan Natives >18 years of age have greater incidence of HTN, smoking, high cholesterol, excess weight, and/or diabetes mellitus
• Leading cause of death in men and women in the most prevalent ethnic groups is cardiac disease even though there are genetic predispositions to develop risk factors (AHA, 2003)
![Page 78: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Cultural Considerations• Higher incidence of HTN in Black community and in
whites in the South
• Black individuals experience longer delays in seeking treatment
• Symptom may be dyspnea and not chest pain
• Symptoms in older adults may not be associated with acute chest pain
![Page 79: Imbalance Between Myocardial Supply and Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816724550346895ddbb30e/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Women and Heart Disease
• More women than men have angina but many women experience atypical angina.– What does atypical mean?
• Women have MI at older ages than men• Lack of education in women that CAD is the leading
cause of death in women• Pathophysiology in women is different than men i.e.
smaller vessels, less collateral circulation than men• Impaired glucose tolerance seriously increase risk

Why The Gender Gap?
• Women present to emergency rooms or chest pain centers 1- 2 hours later than men.
• Do the multiple roles a woman takes on delay care because of her responsibilities to others?
• Do women delay care because they perceive that heart disease is something that happens to one’s father, brother, or spouse?

arm and shoulder
• Weakness
Women• Pain in chest,
upper back, jaw or neck
• Shortness of breath
• Flu-like symptoms: nausea or vomiting, cold sweats
• Fatigue or weakness
• Feelings of anxiety, loss of appetite, malaise

Postmenopausal Hormone Therapy (HT)
• Postmenopausal HT is no longer recommended as a strategy to prevent heart disease.
• Hormone therapy, generally short term, may still be used to treat symptoms of menopause - this is a decision between a woman and her healthcare provider.

Laboratory Assessment• Troponin T and I- myocardial muscle protein released into the
bloodstream with injury to the myocardial muscle (not found in healthy clients)
• Creatine kinase- MB (CK-MB) is an enzyme specific to cells of the brain, myocardium and skeletal muscle. Indicates tissue necrosis or injury, Cardiac specificity is determined by measuring the isoenzyme activity CK-MB is found in myocardial muscle CK-MM (skeletal) CK-BB (brain)
• Myoglobin early marker of MI is a low-molecular-weight heme protein found in cardiac and skeletal muscle, appears as early as 2 hours after an MI with rapid decline after 7 hours
• C-Reactive Protein is a marker of inflammation. Any inflammatory process can increase CRP in the blood
