Cardiovascular Disease Management

In 80% of cases, a stroke is caused by a blocked artery. More specifically, this pathology corresponds to the sudden stop of the circulation of the blood. This phenomenon completely prevents the supply of oxygen and glucose to brain cells. In the 20% of the remaining cases, stroke results from a ruptured vessel in the brain. Stroke is then considered to be hemorrhagic. Symptoms of a stroke are:

• Feeling of searing weakness in the face, arm or leg
• Sudden decrease in sight in one eye
• Difficulty speaking
• Loss of equilibrium
• Severe headache

From temporary paralysis to severe disability, the consequences of a stroke are multiple and their severity depends on the speed of treatment.

While therapeutic advances have made it possible to reduce mortality rates, this heart disease is the leading cause of death in adults over the age of 40. Myocardial infarction occurs after obstruction of several coronary arteries. As a result, the heart (myocardium) stops being supplied with blood and oxygen. Our team of professionals advise you to get checked if you experience the following symptoms:

• Pain in the chest and shoulder
• Strong palpitations
• Nausea, vomiting not associated with digestive disorders

This pathology is characterized by an irregular heartbeat, causing palpitations. These cardiovascular ailments generally affect the elderly (the average age of victims is 70 years). Atrial fibrillation is increased in likelihood by existing cardiovascular diseases (heart failure, hypertension, etc.).

This pathology is characterized by the inability of the heart to perform its role of circulating blood around the body. There are multiple causes but the main reasoning for heart failure is that of inactivity. If it is used less, the heart muscle can weaken over time.

This disease deteriorates the muscle functions of both left and right chambers of the heart. In these cases, the flow of blood to the aorta and to the lungs is disturbed.
