- Summary:
-
Heart, stroke and vascular disease comprises all diseases and conditions involving the heart and blood vessels. This includes coronary heart disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, reno-vascular disease and chronic heart failure. The main underlying problem in these diseases is atherosclerosis, a process that forms abnormal build-ups of fat, cholesterol and other substances in the inner lining of the arteries. It is most serious when it affects the blood supply to the heart (causing angina, heart attack or sudden death) or to the brain (which can lead to a stroke).
