Ex. 19. Find in the texts the answers to the following questions:
а) What is the cause of ischemic heart disease?
What is the most common symptom of a heart attack?
What are the types of angina pectoris?
What is the difference between these two types?
What is myocardial infarction?
What are the classic symptoms of it?
What are the most common kinds of heart disease?
We all have good reasons to protect our hearts. Cardiovascular disease today is the leading cause of death and disability in the industrialized world. In America alone heart attacks claim 540,000 victims a year. And another 155,000 die annually because of damage of blockage in arteries supplying blood to the brain, resulting in stroke.
There are many different types of heart disease, many reasons why they strike. The most common kind of heart disease is caused by an insufficient supply of oxygen to the heart – known as ischemic heart disease. Here are some of its more common forms.
Heart Attack.
A heart attack occurs when the heart receives an inadequate supply of oxygen-carrying blood. During a heart attack, this lack of oxygen causes serious damage to part of the heart. The most common symptom of a heart attack is chest pain.
Angina.
The term “angina” refers to chest pain usually caused when the heart’s deprivation of oxygen is moderate, rather than catastrophic. There are two types of angina:
“Stable angina” is chest pain that is predictable. That is, it almost always occurs during physical exertion or emotional distress. The heart is saying “I’ve got to have more oxygen, or you have to stop making me do so much work”.
“Unstable angina” is chest pain that is not predictable. It can occur even when one is resting or it can occur during exertion, and keep on hurting even afterward. It may also indicate that previously stable angina has suddenly worsened. Unstable angina often precedes serious heart attack.
Myocardial infarction.
Coronary insufficiency may result in myocardial infarction that occurs either with or without occlusion of a branch of a coronary artery. The classic symptoms are: 1) pain, 2) shock, and 3) dyspnea. The pain is similar to that of angina in location. It is not caused by exercise, not is it relieved by rest.
Ex. 20. Read the text. State the main idea of it. Compare the character of pain in angina pectoris and in myocardial infarction. Fill in the table:
