What the most common cause of acute event associated with heart disease is an MI or?
MI is short for myocardial infarction. An MI is also known as a heart attack.
What is treatment for enlarged heart?
Cardiomegaly is not a condition requiring treatment - it is a symptom of another disease process. As such, the cardiomegaly is not treated, the underlying process is treated. The most common cause of cardiomegaly is hypertension. Treatment of the hypertension may result in decreasing cardiomegaly, but this is not typical. Other conditions which result in cardiomegaly include myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, and pulmonary hypertension. Renal disease is also a less common cause. For congestive heart failure and myocardial infarction, ACE inhibitors can be used to help prevent remodeling of the heart and decrease cardiomegaly.
What are the differences between arterial and venous thrombosis?
Arterial thrombosis is associated with an atherosclerotic plaque being ruptured. It is hence associated with high pressure arteries. The thrombus is made of many platelets and contains little fibrin. It can lead to stroke or acute myocardial infarction in the most severe cases. Venous thrombosis is caused by vessel injury or static blood flow in a low-pressure venous system. The thrombus is made of fibrin and red blood cells with very little platelets. It can detach to form an embolus and may cause pulmonary embolism.
Where is plasma most common?

What are the different types of heart disease?
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common type and is the leading cause of heart attacks. When you have CAD, your arteries become hard and narrow. Blood has a hard time getting to the heart, so the heart does not get all the blood it needs. CAD can lead to: Angina. Angina is chest pain or discomfort that happens when the heart does not get enough blood.

Can a clot in the coronary artery cause a myocardial infarction?
Yes, a clot in the coronary artery can cause a myocardial infarction or a heart attack. Most heart attacks are caused by blood clots that come loose from the walls of the arteries.
Why do people die in the sleep?

What is the common name and cause of the medical condition called a coronary?

What the most common cause of acute event associated with heart disease is an MI or?
MI is short for myocardial infarction. An MI is also known as a heart attack.
Which test is useful as evidence to myocardial infraction?
The ECG is the most useful test to determine whether a myocardial infarction has occurred. The electrocardiogram traces the electrical signals in the heart.
What is the most common cause of death following a myocardial infarction?
In approxiemetly 25% of patients that have had a MI, a ventricular arrthymia or fibrilliation will occur and lead to fatality and is the leading cause of death post MI.
What parts of the body can be affected by emboli?
Emboli can affect any part of the body. The most common sites are the legs and feet. When the brain is affected, it is called a stroke. When the heart is involved, it is called a heart attack or myocardial infarction (MI).
What is the most common complication of a parotidectomy?
The most common long-term complication of parotidectomy is redness and sweating in the cheek, known as Frey's syndrome.
What are the the most common complications of atherectomy?
The most common complications are usually related to blood vessel injury when the catheter is inserted and to different heart-related problems due to the moving of the catheter within the heart.
