About cardiology
Cardiology (Greek: καρδίᾱ kardiā, “heart” and –λογία –logia, “study“) is a branch of internal medicine that deals with heart disorders and some blood vessel disorders. Cardiovascular diseases (diseases involving the heart and blood vessels) are among the most common diseases in the world and are leading causes of death, including coronary heart disease (angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, etc.), heart failure syndrome, arrhythmias, atherosclerosis, hypertension and hypertensive heart disease, heart valve disease, congenital heart disease, thromboembolic disease (such as pulmonary thromboembolism or deep vein thrombosis), aneurysms, myocarditis, pericarditis, endocarditis, rheumatic heart disease and others.
A significant number of diseases of the heart and blood vessels can be prevented. It is, therefore, important to influence the risk factors that contribute to the development of cardiovascular diseases, such as high blood pressure, disorders of blood lipid (fat) levels (dyslipidemia), diabetes, obesity, lifestyle habits, etc. in a timely manner. It is crucial to recognize cardiovascular diseases, to adequately diagnose them and to treat them optimally, because only in this way can we achieve optimal outcomes and the best possible prognosis.
