What is the typical VA disability rating for Ischemic heart disease?
whats the % rate for ischemic heart disease disablity
Is Transient ischemic attack a ischemic heart disease?
No. A transient ischemic attack, also known as a "mini-stroke", is when a person has stroke like symptoms that resolve within 24 hours. I it due to a lack of blood flow to some part of the brain. Ischemic heart disease is when there are blood flow problems to the heart. It usually manifests as chest tightness or pain and shortness of breath is exertion but the symptoms can vary widely.
How many types of tissue are in a human heart?
3, Fat tissue, Heart Tissue, and Muscle tissue.
Are ischemic heart disease and atrial fibillation related?
No. These two are independent cardiac pathophysiologic phenomena.
What types of tissue make up your heart?
The types of tissues that make up your heart are cardiac muscle tissue, nerve tissue and blood tissue. The cardiac muscle tissue contracts, making the heart pump. The nerve tissue brings messages that tell the heart how fast to beat. The blood tissue is carried from the heart to other organs of the body.
Group of cardiac disabilities resulting from an insufficient supply of oxygenated blood to the heart?

What type of disease is ischemic heart disease?
As the name suggest, ischemic heart disease is a disease of the heart. However you need to understand that the term 'ischemic' means that lack of blood supply. This then suggest that the actual problem is the lack of blood supply to the heart muscle (myocytes). Ischemic heart disease can predispose to many other cardiovascular condition such as angina, myocardial infaction and arrythmia.
What is ischemic stroke?
A "stroke" is an illness of the brain, the equivalent of a heart attack. There are two general types of strokes. An "ischemic" stroke or a "transient ischemic attack" is a blockage of the flow of blood within the brain. This is typically caused by a blood clot within the brain. If small enough, in a "TIA", the clot is washed away or dissolved, with little aftereffects. A larger or longer-lasting blockage can cause substantial death of brain tissue. The other type is a "hemmorhagic" stroke, in which a blood vessel bursts and blood leaks into the brain.
Is Transient ischemic attack a ischemic heart disease?
No. A transient ischemic attack, also known as a "mini-stroke", is when a person has stroke like symptoms that resolve within 24 hours. I it due to a lack of blood flow to some part of the brain. Ischemic heart disease is when there are blood flow problems to the heart. It usually manifests as chest tightness or pain and shortness of breath is exertion but the symptoms can vary widely.
What affects heart disease?
There are actually several diseases of the heart. Three of the diseases are rheumatic Heart disease, ischemic heart disease, and inflammatory heart disease.
What is a ischemic attack?
A Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is now defined as a transient episode of neurologic dysfunction caused by focal brain, spinal cord, or retinal ischemia, without acute infarction. The end point is biologic (tissue injury) rather than arbitrary (24 hours). In keeping with this definition of TIA, ischemic stroke is defined as an infarction of central nervous system tissue.
What are the 3 different heart conditions?
There are a variety of types of heart conditions. These include rheumatic heart disease, hypertensive heart disease, ischemic heart disease, and cerebrovascular disease.
How many types of tissue are in a human heart?
3, Fat tissue, Heart Tissue, and Muscle tissue.
How does the heart disease affect to the heart tissue?
how does the heart disease affect in tissue
How are cells in heart tissue different from cells in bone tissue?
The bone tissue gets you to stop bleeding if you got heart the heart tissue keeps your heart from getting hurt
Are ischemic heart disease and atrial fibillation related?
No. These two are independent cardiac pathophysiologic phenomena.
