Ischemic Heart Diseases

Background: Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is one of the principle causes of morbidity and of mortality in women1. Ischemic heart disease may manifest clinically as either chronic stable angina or acute coronary syndrome2 (ACS). Traditional risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, etc.) contribute to the development of IHD in both women and men. Some risk factors are unique to women (e.g., pregnancy-related complications, menopause), which cause increased mortality in women Aim: To study the risk factors and clinical profile of ischemic heart disease in women. Materials And Methods: Hospital-based prospective, cross-sectional study done in 50 patients with ischemic heart disease. Patients with a history of Chest pain suggestive of ischemic heart diseases and Electrocardiogram and cardiac biomarkers suggestive of ischemic heart disease were included in the study. Results: Maximum incidence of ischemic heart diseases is seen in the 6th decade. Mean age is 58.92 + 2.8years. 64%of the patients presented with chest pain, and 36% patients presented without any chest pain. After chest pain, the most common symptom was palpitations, seen in 56% patients, followed by sweating (44%). 30% presented to the medical facility within 3hours. 88% were diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome, and 12% were diagnosed with chronic stable angina. Women specific risk factors include the pregnancy-related complications seen in 10% patients, menopause attained in 86% patients, PCOS seen in 08% patients, use of oral contraceptive pills noticed in 08% patients, Other risk factors identified were hypothyroidism in 16% patients, connective tissue disorders like rheumatoid arthritis seen in 12% of the patients. Conclusion: Awareness regarding atypical symptoms as well as other symptoms of IHD should be created among women to avoid delayed complications. Simple lifestyle modifications like physical activity, diet modifications, etc., will reduce the number of women at risk for IHD.

Medical Visits

Natural disasters have negative health impacts on chronic diseases in affected populations. Severely affected areas are usually rural areas with limited basic infrastructure and a population have that has limited access to optimal healthcare after a disaster. Patients with cardiovascular diseases are required to maintain quality care, especially after disasters. A population-based case-control study enrolled adults from the National Health Insurance Registry who had ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disease histories and lived in the area affected by Typhoon Morakot in 2009. Monthly medical visits for acute cerebrovascular and ischemic heart diseases markedly increased at approximately 1–2 months after the typhoon. Survival analysis during the two years following the typhoon indicated a significant increase in mortality in adults with an acute ischemic heart disease history who lived in the severely affected area. Mortality hazard analysis showed that among affected adults with previous cerebrovascular diseases and acute ischemic heart diseases, patients with diabetes (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.3–1.7), Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) (adjusted HR: 2.0–2.7), chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) and asthma (adjusted HR: 1.7–2.1), liver cirrhosis (adjusted HR: 2.3–3.3) and neoplasms (adjusted HR: 1.1–2.1) had significantly increased mortality rates. Consequently, high-quality and accessible primary healthcare plans should be made available to maintain and support affected populations after disasters.

Background and Aims: Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) is the number one cause of morbidity and mortality among the in-patient of different cardiac hospital of developing countries like Nepal. The prevalence of IHD is high with significant associated risk factors that include tobacco use, history of hypertension, family history and age. Though IHD can cause life-threatening conditions like myocardial infarction, yet it is preventable disease. The objective of the study was to study the risk factors associated with ischemic heart diseases among population attending selected cardiac hospitals of Kathmandu.Methods: Hospital- based pair matched case-control was conducted among the patients with IHD at Manmohan Cardiothoracic Vascular and Transplant Centre (MCTVC) and Shahid Gangalal National Heart Center (SGNHC). Non- random purposive sampling technique was applied and sample size was calculated as 105 (35 cases and 70 controls). Case and control were matched with age (Å} 2 years) and sex from the same hospitals. Ethical approval was taken from Institutional review board, Institute of medicine. Informed consent was obtained prior to information collection, after explaining about the purpose of the study to the entire participants. Only interested participants were included in the study. Confidentiality of the subject was ensured by collecting data in separate private room. Univariate associations between the risk factors and IHD under study was assessed by applying Chi-Square test and Fisher’s exact test and expressed as odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals. To assess the strength of association, the odds ratio was calculated.Results: 88.6% cases and 90% controls participants were of age 41 years and above and IHD was more common in male (60%) than female (40%). The participants who were not doing work-related moderate-intense activity are twice more likely to have IHD compared to controls (OR=2.276, p=0.049), similarly, hypertensive are two times (OR=2.276, p=0.049), obese are more than two times (OR=2.44, p=0.045), and participants with high waist to hip ratio are almost three times more likely to suffer from IHD (OR=2.88, p=0.013).Conclusions: The current smoking, physical inactivity, hypertension and waist to hip ratio tend to be the significant risk factors of IHD. Minimizing exposure to the identified risk factors can prevent burden of complex and expensive IHD treatment.

Introduction. It is known that patients with ischemic heart diseases have endothelial dysfunction, but there is lack of research about microcirculation in these patients with diffuse liver diseases, especially diagnosed with digital capillaroscopy. Aim. To investigate hemodynamic disorders and microcirculation in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease depending on the presence of diffuse liver diseases and its severity with the digital capillaroscopy. Materials and methods. Our prospective study included 187 patients according to the criteria of inclusion. The data of echocardiography and digital capillaroscopy were analysed. Results. In our research in patients with ejection fraction less than 40% there was revealed thickening of the wall of the left ventricle, low blood supply in arterial and venous parts of capillaries. Patients with ejection fraction less than 40% and progressive diffuse liver diseases had advanced thickening of the wall of the left ventricle. Patients with liver cirrhosis had more adverse changes in hemodynamics. Patients with ischemic heart disease and diffuse liver disease had the worst capillary blood supply. Patients with ejection fraction less than 40% and diffuse liver diseases had structural changes of capillaries such as bi-, trifurcation and bushy forms. Conclusions. So, diffuse liver diseases, especially severe, cause endothelial dysfunction in patients with ischemic heart diseases. Digital capillaroscopy is a noninvasive method for microcirculation diagnosis and patients’ monitoring.

Unhealthy Lifestyle

Background: Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with ischemic heart disease (IHD) accounting for roughly 50% of these events in industrialized nations. : In recent years, the relative importance of IHD in less industrialized countries is also rising at an alarming and steadily-increasing rate. Objective: Many experimental, observational and epidemiological studies have demonstrated the importance of psychosocial risk factors in the development and clinical manifestations of IHD. They act both indirectly, associated with an unhealthy lifestyle; and directly, through the activation of inflammatory cascades and the sympathetic nervous system. They also cluster with biological risk factors to increase the incidence and clinical manifestations of IHD. From these assumptions, there emerges the potential that an integrated approach that incorporates psychological therapy in various forms might reduce IHD patients’ symptoms and maladaptive behaviors, and thereby enhance their prognosis. Methods: To date, three psychotherapeutic approaches have been utilized within cardiac psychology practice: (1) cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy; (2) psychodynamic psychotherapy; and (3) ontopsychological psychotherapy. The current article briefly describes these three approaches and how their use might enhance the care of IHD patients. Results: A range of psychological characteristics influence the development, course and management of cardiac patients’ IHD. Among others, these include patients’ emotions, attitudes, behaviors, relationships, and stressors. State-of- the-art literature suggests that psychological interventions should be considered in much the same way as medical interventions, in terms of their relevance to both patient management and outcomes. Conclusion: For this reason, it is essential that professional psychological and psychotherapeutic support be rendered available to cardiology patients, as a means to enhance both the effectiveness and efficiency of care.
