Blood supply of the heart
Histology
1. Elastic Arteries
2. Muscular Arteries
3. Arterioles
4. Capillaries
5. Venules
6. Veins
7. From heart to tissues
He had
1. Retrosternal chest pain
  1. Causes include: Gastrointestinal problems, Respiratory problems, Cardiac problems, & Tumors
  2. Radiating
Angina
1. chest pain <20 min caused by reduced blood flow to the heart
Investigations
1. Blood test
  1. For cardiac enzymes, ESR, WBC, glucose
2. ECG
3. Lipid profile
Myocardial infarction
1. is the irreversible death (necrosis) of heart muscle secondary to prolonged ischemia
2. Signs & symptoms
  1. Typical intense chest pain for >20 min
3. classification
  1. Subendocardial
    1. NSTEMI
  2. Transmural
    1. STEMI
4. Complications
  1. Arrhythmia
  2. Heart failure
  3. Cardiogenic shock
    1. Is a condition in which a suddenly weakened heart isn't able to pump enough blood to meet the body's needs.
    2. Signs & symptoms
      1. • Hypotension • Absence of hypovolemia • Tachycardia • Clinical signs of poor perfusion
5. pathogenesis
6. Surgical management
  1. Angioplasty
    1. Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is a minimally invasive procedure to open up blocked coronary arteries, allowing blood to circulate unobstructed to the myocardium.
Pharmacological management
1. -nitrate -beta blocker or CCBs -aspirin -Oxygen -(ACE) inhibitors -Revascularization
