  1. Facebook Live by Dr.Gokhale All About Heart Problems

  2. Know Your Heart • People the world over are highly concerned about heart disease because it is the No.1 killer. • As Indians, we should be much more seriously worried because we are three times more vulnerable than Europeans to a heart attack because of generic factors. • Heart diseases in our region grew by 300% in the last 30 years and are still growingby 2-3% every year. • WHO projects that by 2015 one million people under the age of 40 will die from this disease and 60% of heart patients in the world are likely to be in India.

  3. Know Your Heart • We may not be able to choose our parents but we can take many measures to prevent the onset of heart disease in the first place. • If in the unfortunate event of becoming a victim of heart disease, we can promptly act to minimize its consequences. • we should, therefore, have some basic understanding of heart disease

  4. What is Heart Disease? • Heart disease is any disorder that affects the hearts ability to function normally. Various forms of heart disease include: • Coronary artey disease ( the most common form of heart disease resulting in heart attacks) - results in narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries. • Arrhythmias ( abnormal heart rhythms) • Heart valve diseases • Congential heart disease(defects in the heart present at birth) • Cardiomyopathy(damage to the heart muscle)

  5. HEART FAILURE INTRODUCTION • Heart Failure (HF) - a condition in which a weakened heart can’t pump enough blood throughout the body. • This leads to reduced quality of life, frequent hospitalization and high mortality. • Although Heart Failure, like other heart ailments, has been acquiring epidemic proportions in India in the recent past, it has not received adequate public attention. • Heart Failure does not mean that heart has stopped working or is about to stop working. • Heart Failure is a condition in which the heart becomes so weak that it has trouble pumping a normal amount of blood carrying enough oxygen and nutrients to meet the body's needs. • While the word ‘failure’ sounds alarming as it implies that the heart has suddenly stopped working, the medical term actually describes a chronic syndrome that typically develops slowly.
