Overview
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) encompass a broad spectrum of disorders including coronary artery disease, heart failure, hypertension, stroke, and arrhythmias, collectively representing the leading cause of global mortality and morbidity 18. These conditions significantly impact quality of life and impose substantial economic burdens on individuals and healthcare systems. Older adults, individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes and hypertension, and those with certain genetic predispositions are particularly at risk 28. Understanding and effectively managing CVDs is crucial in day-to-day practice to prevent complications, reduce mortality, and enhance patient outcomes.Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases involves intricate interactions at molecular, cellular, and organ levels. At the core, CVDs often stem from chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction 613. In atherosclerosis, for instance, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles accumulate in arterial walls, triggering an inflammatory response that leads to the formation of plaques. These plaques can rupture, causing thrombosis and acute ischemic events such as myocardial infarction or stroke 613. Additionally, type D personality, characterized by negative affectivity and social inhibition, has been linked to increased cardiovascular risk through mechanisms involving heightened stress responses and poorer health behaviors 2. Furthermore, disruptions in circadian rhythms, particularly through factors like artificial light at night and air pollution, can exacerbate oxidative stress and inflammation, contributing to cardiovascular pathology 411.Epidemiology
Cardiovascular diseases exhibit significant variability in incidence and prevalence based on demographic and geographic factors. Globally, CVDs account for nearly one-third of all deaths, with an increasing burden in aging populations, particularly in China where CVD mortality exceeds 40% of total deaths 138. Hypertension and diabetes are prevalent risk factors, with their combined presence nearly doubling the risk of cardiovascular death compared to individuals without these conditions 67. Trends indicate rising prevalence due to lifestyle changes, urbanization, and aging demographics, underscoring the need for targeted preventive measures 38.Clinical Presentation
The clinical presentation of cardiovascular diseases varies widely depending on the specific condition. Common symptoms include chest pain (angina), shortness of breath, palpitations, and syncope, particularly in acute coronary syndromes and heart failure 18. Atypical presentations can occur, especially in elderly patients or those with comorbidities, where symptoms may be vague or attributed to other conditions 8. Red-flag features such as sudden onset of severe chest pain, unexplained syncope, or significant weight loss warrant urgent evaluation 18.Diagnosis
Diagnosing cardiovascular diseases involves a comprehensive approach combining clinical assessment, laboratory tests, and imaging modalities. Initial steps include detailed medical history, physical examination, and assessment of risk factors 18. Specific diagnostic criteria and tests include:Differential Diagnosis:
Management
First-Line Management
Second-Line Management
Refractory or Specialist Escalation
Contraindications:
Complications
Acute Complications
Long-Term Complications
Referral Triggers
Prognosis & Follow-Up
The prognosis of cardiovascular diseases varies widely depending on the specific condition and the effectiveness of management. Prognostic indicators include left ventricular ejection fraction, severity of coronary artery disease, and control of risk factors like hypertension and diabetes 18. Recommended follow-up intervals typically include:Monitoring should include regular ECGs, lipid profiles, blood pressure checks, and HbA1c levels as appropriate 1.
