Title: Pathophysiology of Coronary Artery Disease

Coronary Artery Disease
  • Coronary atherosclerosis
  • Frequently diffuse down vessel wall with
    segmental areas of more severe obstruction
  • Frequently eccentric in vessel wall

5
41 of all deaths are due to cardiovascular causes
12,400,00 Americans have history of MI or
angina 1,100,000 Americans per year have a
myocardial infarction, of which 40 are fatal

chest. - Roseanne Barr

Presenting Manifestation of CAD
  • Of asymptomatic men age 30-60, 5 per year will
    develop symptomatic CAD, manifested by
  • Myocardial infarction 45
  • Sudden death 11
  • Stable angina pectoris 32
  • Unstable angina pectoris 9

Coronary Blood Flow Relative to Stenosis, Rest
and Peak Exercise
  • At rest, coronary blood flow remains normal with
    obstructions of up to 80-90 in severity.
  • During maximal exercise, peak coronary blood flow
    decreases with obstructions of 50 or more in
    severity.
  • There is a sharp decline in peak coronary blood
    flow with increasing obstructions beyond 50

Does Visual Interpretation of Coronary Angiogram
Predict Flow?

OR at time of bypass surgery, vs stenosis as
assessed at coronary angiography

Percent Stenosis
Although percent diameter stenosis is very
helpful in predicting the physiologic effects of
an experimentally produced obstruction in an
otherwise normal coronary vessel, the
applicability of this index to clinical coronary
disease, which usually is diffuse, has been
seriously challenged particularly in lesions of
intermediate severity. Unfortunately, most
coronary angiographers and clinicians have
continued to use visual estimates of percent
diameter stenosis to separate physiologically
significant from functionally unimportant
obstructions.

Coronary blood flow at rest is greater in the
endocardial layer than the epicardium, reflecting
the increased R3 component of resistance in the
endocardium.
