The failure to deliver blood to the heart due to a narrowing of arteries results in C. coronary heart disease
Heart disease is the most common cause of death for both men and women.
Coronary heart disease (CHD) or coronary artery disease develops when the coronary arteries become too narrow. CHD are the blood vessels that supply oxygen and blood to the heart. It tends to develop when cholesterol builds up on the artery walls and creating plaque. Coronary artery disease supply blood to the heart when plaque is made up of cholesterol deposit
Heart failure or congestive heart failure means that the heart isn’t pumping blood as well as it should. Heart failure does not mean that the heart stops beating, instead it keeps working, but the body’s need for blood and oxygen isn’t met.
