-
-
- Stable angina, acute myocardial infarction, sudden death,
unstable angina
-
- Peripheral arterial disease
-

- Intermittent claudication, increased risk of death from heart
attack and stroke
American Heart Association, 2000. 21. Definitions
- CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE (CAD) or CORONARY HEART DISEASE (CHD)
(often broadly referred to as ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE (IHD):
primarily myocardial infarction and sudden coronary death, broader
definition may include angina pectoris, atherosclerosis, positive
angiogram, and revascularization (perceutaneous coronary
interventions, or PCI such as angioplasty and stents)
- CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE or CVD includes CHD, cerebrovascular
disease, peripheral vascular disease, and other cardiac conditions
(congenital, arrhythmias, and congestive heart failure)
22. Definitions (cont.)
- SURROGATE MEASURES include: carotid intimal medial thickness
(IMT), coronary calcium, angiographic stenosis, brachial ultrasound
flow mediated dilatation (FMD)
- Hard endpoints include myocardial infarction, CHD death, and
stroke
