GENERAL OBJECTIVE
At the end of the presentation, students are expected to gain the necessary information regarding Coronary Artery Disease for them to determine the appropriate nursing care management they should provide to those patients having this kind of illness
The students will be able to: Understand the nature of Coronary Artery
Disease Distinguishes its clinical manifestations and predisposing factors. Outline the Anatomy and Physiology of the disease or condition. Demonstrate the Pathophysiology of the disease.
Determine the health status of the patient
through: Knowing the past history and present
illnesses of the patient as well as their family health history. Conducting physical examination. Analyzing the laboratory examination done and correlate it to the present condition of the patient.
Determine the appropriate nursing care
that should be provided to the client. Understand the different drugs that the client is taking and determine how it will benefit the client as well as the possible adverse effect it may give. Create a good and therapeutic nursepatient interaction. Teach the client’s relatives on how to minimize the risk of developing Coronary Artery Disease.
Coronary artery disease (CAD), also called
coronary heart disease, is a condition in which plaque builds up inside the coronary arteries. These arteries supply your heart muscle with oxygen-rich blood. Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in the blood. When plaque builds up in the arteries, the condition is called atherosclerosis. Plaque narrows the arteries and reduces blood flow to your heart muscle. It also makes it more likely that blood clots will form in your arteries. Blood clots can partially or completely block blood flow.
When your coronary arteries are narrowed or
blocked, oxygen-rich blood can't reach your heart muscle and causes it to die. This can cause angina or a heart attack. It can weaken the heart muscle and lead to heart failure and arrhythmias.
Atherosclerosis Coronary heart disease Hardening of the arteries Heart disease Ischemic heart disease Narrowing of the arteries
Starts when certain factors damage the inner
layers of the coronary arteries. These factors include: Smoking High amounts of certain fats and cholesterol in the blood High blood pressure High amounts of sugar in the blood due to insulin resistance or diabetes
Many factors raise the risk of developing CAD. The
more risk factors you have, the greater chance you have of developing CAD. Unhealthy blood cholesterol levels High blood pressure Smoking Insulin resistance Diabetes Overweight or obesity Metabolic syndrome Lack of physical activity Age Family history of early heart disease
High levels of a protein called C-reactive
protein (CRP) in the blood may raise the risk for CAD and heart attack. High levels of CRP are proof of inflammation in the body. Other factors also may contribute to CAD. These include: Sleep apnea Stress Alcohol
Angina Shortness of breath Heart Attack Discomfort Irritability Fatigue
The most common symptom of heart attack is
chest pain or discomfort. Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts for more than a few minutes or goes away and comes back. The discomfort can feel like pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain. It can be mild or severe. Heart attack pain can sometimes feel like indigestion or heartburn. Heart attacks also can cause upper body discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach. Shortness of breath or fatigue (tiredness) often may occur with or before chest discomfort. Other symptoms of heart attack are nausea (feeling sick to your stomach), vomiting, lightheadedness or fainting, and breaking out in a cold sweat.
Your doctor will diagnose coronary artery
disease (CAD) based on: Your medical and family histories Your risk factors The results of a physical exam and diagnostic tests and procedures
An EKG is a simple test that detects and
records the electrical activity of your heart. An EKG shows how fast your heart is beating and whether it has a regular rhythm. It also shows the strength and timing of electrical signals as they pass through each part of your heart. Certain detect electrical patterns and show signs of a previous or current heart attack.
During stress testing, you exercise to make your
heart work hard and beat fast while heart tests are performed. If you can't exercise, you're given medicine to speed up your heart rate. When your heart is beating fast and working hard, it needs more blood and oxygen. Arteries narrowed by plaque can't supply enough oxygenrich blood to meet your heart's needs. A stress test can show possible signs of CAD, such as: Abnormal changes in your heart rate or blood pressure Symptoms such as shortness of breath or chest pain Abnormal changes in your heart rhythm or your heart's electrical activity
During the stress test, if you can't exercise for
as long as what's considered normal for someone your age, it may be a sign that not enough blood is flowing to your heart. But other factors besides CAD can prevent you from exercising long enough (for example, lung diseases, anemia, or poor general fitness). Some stress tests use a radioactive dye, sound waves, positron emission tomography (PET), or cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to take pictures of your heart when it's working hard and when it's at rest.
These imaging stress tests can show how well
blood is flowing in the different parts of your heart. They also can show how well your heart pumps blood when it beats.
This test uses sound waves to create a
moving picture of your heart. Echocardiography provides information about the size and shape of your heart and how well your heart chambers and valves are working. The test also can identify areas of poor blood flow to the heart, areas of heart muscle that aren't contracting normally, and previous injury to the heart muscle caused by poor blood flow.
A chest x ray takes a picture of the organs
and structures inside the chest, including your heart, lungs, and blood vessels. A chest x ray can reveal signs of heart failure, as well as lung disorders and other causes of symptoms that aren't due to CAD.
Blood tests check the levels of certain fats,
cholesterol, sugar, and proteins in your blood.. Abnormal levels may show that you have risk factors for CAD.
Treatment for coronary artery disease (CAD)
may include lifestyle changes, medicines, and medical procedures. The goals of treatments are to: Relieve symptoms Reduce risk factors in an effort to slow, stop, or reverse the buildup of plaque Lower the risk of blood clots forming, which can cause a heart attack Widen or bypass clogged arteries Prevent complications of CAD
Making lifestyle changes can often help prevent or
treat CAD. For some people, these changes may be the only treatment needed: Follow a heart healthy eating plan to prevent or reduce high blood pressure and high blood cholesterol and to maintain a healthy weight Increase your physical activity. Check with your doctor first to find out how much and what kinds of activity are safe for you. Lose weight, if you're overweight or obese. Quit smoking, if you smoke. Avoid exposure to secondhand smoke. Learn to cope with and reduce stress.
Decrease the workload on your heart and
relieve CAD symptoms Decrease your chance of having a heart attack or dying suddenly Lower your cholesterol and blood pressure Prevent blood clots Prevent or delay the need for a special procedure (for example, angioplasty or coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG))
Medicines used to treat CAD include
anticoagulants ,aspirin and other antiplatelet medicines, ACE inhibitors, beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, nitroglycerin, glycoprotein and fish oil and other supplements high in omega-3 fatty acids.
Angioplasty opens blocked or narrowed
coronary arteries. During angioplasty, a thin tube with a balloon or other device on the end is threaded through a blood vessel to the narrowed or blocked coronary artery. Once in place, the balloon is inflated to push the plaque outward against the wall of the artery. This widens the artery and restores the flow of blood. It can improve blood flow to your heart, relieve chest pain, and possibly prevent a heart attack.
Arteries or veins from other areas in your
body are used to bypass (that is, go around) your narrowed coronary arteries. CABG can improve blood flow to your heart, relieve chest pain, and possibly prevent a heart attack.
Your doctor may prescribe cardiac
rehabilitation (rehab) for angina or after CABG, angioplasty, or a heart attack. Cardiac rehab, when combined with medicine and surgical treatments, can help you recover faster, feel better, and develop a healthier lifestyle. Almost everyone with CAD can benefit from cardiac rehab. The cardiac rehab team may include doctors, nurses, exercise specialists, physical and occupational therapists, dietitians, and psychologists or other behavioral therapists.
Exercise training. This part helps you learn
how to exercise safely, strengthen your muscles, and improve your stamina. Your exercise plan will be based on your individual abilities, needs, and interests. Education, counseling, and training. This part of rehab helps you understand your heart condition and find ways to reduce your risk for future heart problems. The cardiac rehab team will help you learn how to cope with the stress of adjusting to a new lifestyle and with your fears about the future.
Making lifestyle changes and taking
prescribed medicines are important steps
Dying suddenly from heart problems Having a heart attack and permanently
damaging your heart muscle Damaging your heart because of reduced oxygen supply Having arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats)

Your heart is located under the ribcage in the
center of your chest between your right and left lung. It’s shaped like an upside-down pear. Its muscular walls beat, or contract, pumping blood continuously to all parts of your body. The size of your heart can vary depending on your age, size, or the condition of your heart. A normal, healthy, adult heart most often is the size of an average clenched adult fist. Some diseases of the heart can cause it to become larger.
The heart is the muscle in the lower half of the picture.
The heart has four chambers. The right and left atria (AY-tree-uh) are shown in purple. The right and left ventricles (VEN-trih-kuls) are shown in red. Connected to the heart are some of the main blood vessels—arteries and veins—that make up your blood circulatory system. The ventricle on the right side of your heart pumps blood from the heart to your lungs. When you breathe air in, oxygen passes from your lungs through blood vessels where it’s added to your blood. Carbon dioxide, a waste product, is passed from your blood through blood vessels to your lungs and is removed from your body when you breathe air out. The atrium on the left side of your heart receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs. The pumping action of your left ventricle sends this oxygen-rich blood through the aorta (a main artery) to the rest of your
The superior and inferior vena cavae are in blue to the
left of the muscle as you look at the picture. These veins are the largest veins in your body. They carry used (oxygen-poor) blood to the right atrium of your heart. “Used” blood has had its oxygen removed and used by your body’s organs and tissues. The superior vena cava carries used blood from the upper parts of your body, including your head, chest, arms, and neck. The inferior vena cava carries used blood from the lower parts of your body. The used blood from the vena cavae flows into your heart’s right atrium and then on to the right ventricle. From the right ventricle, the used blood is pumped through the pulmonary (PULL-mun-ary) arteries (in blue in the center of picture) to your lungs. Here, through many small, thin blood vessels called capillaries, your blood picks up oxygen needed by all the areas of your body. The oxygen-rich blood passes from your lungs back to
Oxygen-rich blood from your lungs passes
through the pulmonary veins (in red to the right of the left atrium in the picture). It enters the left atrium and is pumped into the left ventricle. From the left ventricle, your blood is pumped to the rest of your body through the aorta. Like all of your organs, your heart needs blood rich with oxygen. This oxygen is supplied through the coronary arteries as it’s pumped out of your heart’s left ventricle. Your coronary arteries are located on your heart’s surface at the beginning of the aorta. Your coronary arteries (shown in red in the drawing) carry oxygen-rich blood to all parts of your heart.
The right and left sides of your heart are divided
by an internal wall of tissue called the septum. The area of the septum that divides the two upper chambers (atria) of your heart is called the atrial or interatrial septum. The area of the septum that divides the two lower chambers (ventricles) of your heart is called the ventricular or interventricular septum.
The picture shows the inside of your heart and
how it’s divided into four chambers. The two upper chambers of your heart are called atria. The atria receive and collect blood. The two lower chambers of your heart are called ventricles. The ventricles pump blood out of your heart into the circulatory system to other parts of your body.
The picture shows your heart’s four valves. Shown
counterclockwise in the picture, the valves include the aortic (ay-OR-tik) valve, the tricuspid (triCUSS-pid) valve, the pulmonary valve, and the mitral (MI-trul) valve.
The arrows in the drawing show the direction
that blood flows through your heart. The light blue arrows show that blood enters the right atrium of your heart from the superior and inferior vena cavae. From the right atrium, blood is pumped into the right ventricle. From the right ventricle, blood is pumped to your lungs through the pulmonary arteries. The light red arrows show the oxygen-rich blood coming in from your lungs through the pulmonary veins into your heart’s left atrium. From the left atrium, the blood is pumped into the left ventricle, where it’s pumped to the rest of your body through the aorta.
For the heart to function properly, your blood
flows in only one direction. Your heart’s valves make this possible. Both of your heart’s ventricles has an “in” (inlet) valve from the atria and an “out” (outlet) valve leading to your arteries. Healthy valves open and close in very exact coordination with the pumping action of your heart’s atria and ventricles. Each valve has a set of flaps called leaflets or cusps, which seal or open the valves. This allows pumped blood to pass through the chambers and into your arteries without backing up or flowing backward.
