Reversible myocardial ischemia is a condition in which areas of myocardium becomes ischemic during stress (exercise) but regain its viabililty (circulation) on resting and do not progress to infarction. Such areas can be detaected by myocardial perfusion imaging like Thallium (T-201)scan.
What else can I help you with?
Condition associated with servere chest pain and myocardial ischemia?
myocardial infarction
What condition is the severe chest pain associated with myocardial ischemia?
what is the medical term meaning obtaining fluid from a joint in order to examine for diagnosis
How can the heart muscles be affected if the coronary artery is blocked?
If a coronary artery is blocked, the heart muscles will not get enough oxygen. This condition is known as ischemia. If the condition continues, the ischemia may lead to infarction, or death of tissue due to lack of oxygen.
What is the Medical term meaning decrease of heart muscle?
Diastole is the relaxation phase of the heart.
The heart's typical response to ischemia is?
The natural biologic response to repeated myocardial ischemia (insufficient oxygen levels in heart muscle) is angiogenesis, the growth of new collateral blood vessels. http://www.cardiumthx.com/science-technology-overview.html
Condition associated with servere chest pain and myocardial ischemia?
myocardial infarction
What is the meaning for negative for provocable myocardial ischemia?
what is the meaning of negative for provocable ischemia
Is transmural ischemia due to acute myocardial infarction?
Myocardial ischemia is owing to poor blood supply and infarction is due to no blood supply. The severity of both differs and ischemia can progress to infarction.
What condition is the severe chest pain associated with myocardial ischemia?
what is the medical term meaning obtaining fluid from a joint in order to examine for diagnosis
The pain of angina pectoris is produced primarily by?
Myocardial ischemia.
How do you describe myocardial ischemia?
Myocardial ischemia is a coronary artery disease during which the heart tissue is slowly or suddenly starved of oxygen and other nutrients. Eventually, the affected heart tissue will die.
Explain what an unheathly lifestyle can do to your coronary arteries?
it will cause deposition of cholesterol in the artery, narrowing it's lumen and may lead to ischemia, and worst obstruction may lead to myocardial infarction.
What does myocardial ischemia look like on an ECG?
The ECG sign of subendocardial ischemia is ST segment depression. Note that ECG is used more now that EKG.
Deficient blood supply to the myocardium is?
Deficient blood supply to the myocardium is: ischemia Ischemia is the medical terms for deficient blood supply to the myocardium. The suffix -emia denotes a blood condition; ischem/o means to hold back. With occlusion from atherosclerosis, the blood flow is restricted, resulting in deficient blood supply.
How can the heart muscles be affected if the coronary artery is blocked?
If a coronary artery is blocked, the heart muscles will not get enough oxygen. This condition is known as ischemia. If the condition continues, the ischemia may lead to infarction, or death of tissue due to lack of oxygen.
What kinds of health problems can be caused by blockages in coronary arteries?
Myocardial ischemia or infarction. (Heart attack)
What occurs when the heart muscle is deprived of oxygen?
When the heart muscle is deprived of oxygen, it can lead to a condition called ischemia, which can result in chest pain (angina) or a heart attack (myocardial infarction). This oxygen deprivation can be caused by blockages in the coronary arteries, leading to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle.
