Health Facts on the Heart

 
 
Information that could save your life

Did you know that ...

  • The number of non-institutionalized adults with diagnosed heart disease in the USA in 2006 was 24.1 million - a veritable epidemic of heart failure.
  • The number of deaths in 2005 in the USA from heart disease was 652,091.
  • Coronary artery disease is  the #1 cause of death in the United States - for both men and women - and the most common type of heart disease.
  • Heart disease is the leading cause of death in patients with diabetes; some 65% of all diabetics die from coronary heart disease.
  • Atherosclerosis - another term used for coronary artery disease - can be experienced without signs or symptoms, and not diagnosed until after a heart attack or stroke.
  • A person with peripheral artery disease (PAD) has a six to seven times greater risk of CAD, heart attack, stroke, or transient ischemic attack ("mini stroke") than the rest of the population.
  • If a person has heart disease, he/she has a 1-in-3 chance of having blocked arteries in the legs.
  • A normal, healthy heart has an "ejection fraction" (EF) - the measure of pumping capacity - of 50%.
  • Most heart attacks start slowly, with mild pain or discomfort - not the "Hollywood" chest-clutching sudden heart attack, according to the American Heart Association.
  • Heart muscle is damaged by heart disease causing hibernating (stunned) myocardium tissue, or even dead tissue.
  • You don't have to wait for a heart transplant (or the end of life) to arrive; rather, you can pro-actively create your own health action plan for congestive heart failure.
  • TheraVitae, makers of VesCell adult stem cell therapy for heart conditions and peripheral artery disease, has published more than one health article on heart disease. - such as the Asian Cardiovascular & Thoracic Annals (PDF) (2008, Vol. 16, No. 2) and the British Journal of Haematology. (PDF)
  • Cardiovascular disease led to about one female death each minute in 2004.
  • For men at age 40, the lifetime risk for cardiovascular disease is two in three; for women, the risk is one in two.
  • Because women have heart attacks at older ages than men, women are more likely to die from the heart attack within a few weeks.
  • Currently, theres no cure for heart failure. However, researchers are finding and testing new treatments; in some cases, such as the use of stem cells for heart repair, the treatment is on the market, with measurable success.
