Coronary Heart Disease
Coronary heart disease caused by narrowing and blockage of the heart arteries causes angina, heart attacks and heart failure. It remains one of the commonest causes of mortality in the UK and globally. Public health interventions and improvements in treatment have steadily reduced deaths from coronary heart disease.
This lecture will discuss the causes of coronary heart disease and advances in reducing its effects.
