Section I: U.S. Disease Statistics

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

U.S. Disease Statistics

• 25% of all deaths in the U.S. for all ethnic groups are caused by heart disease

• 600,000 people in the U.S. die each year of heart disease

• Over ½ of all heart disease deaths in the U.S. annually (385,000) are caused by coronary heart disease

• There are 935,000 heart attacks each year in the U.S. (Hillsborough County Population is 1.2 million)

• Coronary heart disease costs the U.S. economy $1.89 billion each year

(Centers for Disease Control, 2013)

Health Status Summary• The health status data discussed in these

slides all represent known risk factors for coronary artery disease (American Heart Association, 2013)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Section III: Heart Disease Risk Factors

Non-Modifiable Heart Disease Risk Factors

• Age (Increased Risk Above 65 Years of Age)• Gender (Increased Risk for Males)• Heredity (Increased Risk for African Americans, Mexican

Americans, Native Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Some Asian Americans)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

(American Heart Association, 2013)

Modifiable Heart Disease Risk Factors

• Tobacco Smoke (Increases 2X – 4X above non-smokers)• Second-hand Smoke Also Increases Risk• High Blood Cholesterol

• Total Cholesterol Should be <200 mg/dL• LDL Should be 100 mg/dL – 160 mg/dL depending on other

risk factors

• High Blood Pressure

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

(American Heart Association, 2013)

Modifiable Heart Disease Risk Factors (cont’)

• Physical Inactivity• Overweight & Obesity• Diabetes• Stress• Alcohol Consumption• Diet/Nutrition

Section IV: Heart Disease Characteristics & Symptoms

Coronary Artery Disease & Anatomy

(Drchandler.com, 2005)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Coronary Artery Disease Progression

(Bean et al, 2006)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Signs & Symptoms of Coronary Heart Disease• Chest Pain (squeezing, pressure, or heaviness)

• Pain in Shoulders, Arms, Neck, Jaw, or Back

• Persistent Indigestion or Nausea

• Fatigue and Weakness

• Shortness of Breath

• Sweating

• Lightheadedness

(American Heart Association, 2013)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Signs & Symptoms of CoronaryHeart Disease in Diabetics

• Diabetic Nerve Damage Can Interfere with Pain Signals in the Body

• Diabetics Can Have Some or All of the Typical Symptoms

• Some Diabetics May Have a Heart Attack without Symptoms

• When in Doubt, Always Call 9-1-1

(National Institutes of Health, 2011)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Differences in Signs & Symptoms of CoronaryHeart Disease in Women

• Women May Not Have Typical Symptoms

• Signs Can Be Subtle

• May Perceive as Flu-like Symptoms

• May Have Shortness of Breath without Chest Pain

• May Have Back Pain or Pressure

• May Have Dizziness, Light-headedness, or Fainting

(American Heart Association, 2013)

Section V: Heart Disease Prevention

Prevention: Controlling Modifiable Risk Factors• Hypertension

• Comply with medications

• Reduce salt intake

• Maintain a healthy weight

• Limit alcohol

• Manage stress

(American Heart Association, 2013)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Prevention: Controlling Modifiable Risk Factors• Elevated Cholesterol & Triglycerides

• Adopt a heart healthy diet

• Increase physical activity

• Take any cholesterol medications as directed by your doctor

• Obesity & Sedentary Lifestyle• Exercise at least 30 minutes a day – can be broken into three

10-minute sessions

• Adopt a heart healthy diet (American Heart & Dash Diet)

(American Heart Association, 2013)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Prevention: Controlling Modifiable Risk Factors• Poorly Controlled Blood Sugar

• Perform blood sugar checks as recommended by doctor

• A1C Checks

• Medications: insulin or oral medications taken as directed

• Diet & Exercise

• Smoking• There are many options & resources available for smoking

cessation

(American Heart Association, 2013)

Section VI: Heart Disease Diagnosis & Treatment

Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease• History & Physical Exam

• Lab Work

• EKG

• Stress Test

• Echocardiogram

• Cardiac Cath

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Treatment of Coronary Artery Disease• Medication

• Risk Factor Modification

• Cardiac Stent

• Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (CABG)

Heart DiseaseRisk Factors & Prevention

Heart Attack• Persistent Symptoms = Acute Event

• This is a Cardiac Emergency• Early Activation of EMS is Important

• Call 9-1-1

• Rapid Intervention is Associated with Better Outcomes (Less than 120 Minutes from Onset of Symptoms)

• Treatment• Cardiac Stent

• Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
