Coronary Artery Disease - Episode 81

This episode covers the number 1 cause of death in the history of the human race, coronary artery disease, the most common form of heart disease. It’s also known as ischemic heart disease. It is still the leading cause of death in the world. Listen in to find out exactly what it is. Among other things, we discuss its causes, risk factors, signs, symptoms, exam findings, lab findings, treatments, and prognoses. Just about everyone knows someone with coronary artery disease and just about all of us will have some degree of it if we’re lucky enough to live that long.
