2. Coronary ischemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_ischemia

   Reduced blood flow to the heart associated with coronary ischemia can result in inadequate oxygen supply to the heart muscle. [6] When oxygen supply to the heart is unable to keep up with oxygen demand from the muscle, the result is the characteristic symptoms of coronary ischemia, the most common of which is chest pain. [6]

3. Hypoxemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxemia

   Hypoxemia is usually defined in terms of reduced partial pressure of oxygen (mm Hg) in arterial blood, but also in terms of reduced content of oxygen (ml oxygen per dl blood) or percentage saturation of hemoglobin (the oxygen-binding protein within red blood cells) with oxygen, which is either found singly or in combination. [2] [5]

4. Hypoxia (medicine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxia_(medicine)

   Tissue hypoxia from low oxygen delivery may be due to low haemoglobin concentration (anaemic hypoxia), low cardiac output (stagnant hypoxia) or low haemoglobin saturation (hypoxic hypoxia). [79] The consequence of oxygen deprivation in tissues is a switch to anaerobic metabolism at the cellular level.

5. Coronary circulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_circulation

   Failure of oxygen delivery caused by a decrease in blood flow in front of increased oxygen demand of the heart results in tissue ischemia, a condition of oxygen deficiency. Brief ischemia is associated with intense chest pain, known as angina. Severe ischemia can cause the heart muscle to die from hypoxia, such as during a myocardial infarction ...

   Plaque can limit the supply of blood and oxygen to your heart tissue. Many people with early coronary artery disease don’t have any symptoms. If your heart doesn’t get enough oxygen, you might ...

7. Ischemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischemia

   Anemia vasoconstricts the periphery so that red blood cells cannot work internally on vital organs such as the heart, brain, etc., thus causing lack of oxygen to the periphery. Premature discontinuation of any oral anticoagulant.
