Heart Disease, also known as cardiovascular disease, is used to describe heart malfunctions. Although heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world, many heart-related conditions can be prevented and managed.

What is Heart Disease?
Heart disease is a broad phrase that encompasses a wide range of cardiac disorders. The most common and well-known heart disease is coronary artery disease. Coronary artery disease (CAD) causes a build-up of fat and cholesterol in the arteries of the heart, which can lead to a heart attack.
End-stage heart failure is the most severe and advanced kind of heart disease. In this condition, the heart cannot pump sufficient blood to keep up with the demands of the body. The heart’s pumping capacity is severely compromised in end-stage heart failure and the disease has advanced to a critical stage.
CAD and other heart diseases can be prevented or treated through healthy lifestyle choices, medications, and surgical procedures.
