Clinical presentations include silent ischemia, angina pectoris, acute coronary syndromes (unstable angina, myocardial infarction), and sudden cardiac death. Diagnosis is by symptoms, ECG, stress testing, and sometimes coronary angiography. Prevention consists of modifying reversible risk factors (eg, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, physical inactivity, obesity, diabetes, smoking). Treatment includes drugs and procedures to reduce ischemia and restore or improve coronary blood flow. #coronaryarterydisease #atherosclerosis #lecture Professor Armen Astvatsatryan, MD, PhD, ScD, FESC.
