- This dangerous episode in the heart, often caused by coronary artery disease, is also known as a myocardial infarction. It occurs suddenly and is an emergency. It happens when the flow of blood that brings oxygen to a part of your heart muscle suddenly becomes blocked. Your heart can’t get enough oxygen. If blood flow is not restored quickly, the heart muscle will begin to die.
- Swelling in the body mainly found in the hands, feet, legs, or abdomen from accumulation of fluids.
- The heart is responsible for pumping this throughout your body.
- This type of high blood pressure occurs only during pregnancy. It typically occurs after the 20th week of pregnancy.

- Blood vessels that carry blood to the heart.
- The force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries as the heart pumps blood. It is measured using two numbers – diastolic and systolic. Systolic is the first number and is the force when blood is pumped out of the heart. Diastolic is the second number and is the force between heartbeats when the heart is filling with blood.
- This blood pressure assessment tool has an inflatable cuff that wraps around the arm with a gauge on the cuff that measures blood pressure. The gauge uses a unit of measurement called millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) to measure the pressure in your blood vessels.
- This “bad” cholesterol. It deposits cholesterol inside the blood vessels that carry blood to your heart and other parts of your body. Over time, this may cause your arteries to narrow or be blocked.
Down
- A healthcare provider that specializes in heart health.
- Low blood pressure. This means the heart, brain, and other parts of the body may not get enough blood.
- High blood pressure. If you have high blood pressure, the force of the blood pushing against the artery walls is consistently too high. The heart has to work harder to pump blood.
- This cardiac situation occurs when the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops pumping. If this happens, blood stops flowing to the brain and other vital organs.
- Blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart.
- This “good” cholesterol helps your body get rid of cholesterol, so it doesn’t clog your arteries.
- A collection of fats, cholesterols, and other substances on the inner walls of the heart arteries.

- A device used to control an irregular heart rhythm.
- This also known as heart rate, is the number of times your heart beats in one minute. Resting heart rates vary from person to person.
- A condition where blood flow to the brain is blocked. This prevents the brain from getting oxygen and nutrients from blood. Without oxygen and nutrients, brain cells begin to die within minutes. This is also called a transient ischemic attack or cerebrovascular accident.
