Ischemia is a serious problem where some part of your body, like your heart or brain, isn’t getting enough blood. Learn what causes it, what the symptoms are, and how you can...
Ischemia is a less-than-normal amount of blood flow to part of your body. This lack of blood flow means your tissues aren’t getting the oxygen they need. This can happen in various organs, like your heart and brain.
Myocardial ischemia occurs when blood flow to the heart muscle (myocardium) is obstructed by a partial or complete blockage of a coronary artery by a buildup of plaques (atherosclerosis). If the plaques rupture, you can have a heart attack (myocardial infarction).
Ischemia is a vascular disease involving an interruption in the arterial blood supply to a tissue, organ, or extremity that, if untreated, can lead to tissue death. It can be caused by embolism, thrombosis of an atherosclerotic artery, or trauma.
Ischemia is a condition in which blood flow is stopped or reduced to a part of the body, which causes the part of the body to not get enough oxygen. Ischemia can affect any part of the body like the heart, brain, legs, and intestines. Treatment for ischemia depends on the type. Ischemia is a serious condition and can be fatal.
Myocardial ischemia reduces blood flow to the heart and may cause chest pain – but not always. Learn all the signs and symptoms and how to treat it.
Ischemia is any reduction in blood flow resulting in decreased oxygen and nutrient supplies to a tissue. Ischemia may be reversible, in which case the affected tissue will recover with the restoration of blood flow, or irreversible, which can result in tissue death.
