What is the diagnosis code for an aneurysm of coronary artery?
The diagnosis code for an aneurysm of the coronary artery is typically I25.41, according to the ICD-10-CM coding system. This code specifically refers to "Coronary artery aneurysm." However, it's important to verify this code with the most current coding guidelines or resources, as updates may occur.
Which disease of the circulatory system contributes the both stroke and heart attack?
coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
What circulatory system supplies the heart with blood?
Through it's own network of arteries in the heart itself. These are the arteries that are disrupted during a heart attack, and they are also bypassed during a bypass surgery with veins from the legs.
What are malfunction of organ structure in the human circulatory system?
heart disorder hypertension coronary artery disease arteriosclerosis's veins
What diseases deal with the circulatory system?
Coronary artery disease, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, cerebrovascular accidents (strokes), and anemia - to name several.
What are some Circulatory system disease?
Atherosclerosis (plaque build up on vessel wall) Congestive heart failure (weaker heart cannot pump effectively, resulting in damming of blood in venous system) Coronary artery disease (stenosed coronary artery or emboli formation in coronary arteries resulting in angina or myocardial infarction) Angina pectoris (Severe pain of heart caused by brief ischemic attack of a blocked coronary artery) Myocardial infarction (aka heart attack. Cardiac necrosis caused by prolonged ischemia caused by a blocked coronary artery) Aneurysms (thinning or bulging of a vessel wall leading to potential bursting of vessel) Cardiac tamponade (fluid accumulation in pericardial sac pushes against heart and reduces pumping efficiency)
What is pulmonary artery?
The pulmonary artery is a structure that is located in the heart. Its' function is to transport deoxygenated blood from the heart to the respiratory system.
Can you take Plavix for coronary artery disease?

What is Gensini score?
The Gensini score is a numerical value used to quantify the severity of coronary artery disease based on angiographic findings. It assigns points to different coronary artery lesions based on their location and the degree of stenosis (narrowing) present, with more points given for critical blockages in major arteries. This scoring system helps clinicians assess the extent of the disease and guide treatment decisions. Higher Gensini scores indicate more severe coronary artery involvement.
What are some questions about the cardiovascular system?
1. What is the anatomy of the cardiovascular system? 2. What are the causes of coronary artery disease? 3. Is cigarette smoking a really big risk factor for heart disease?
