Myocardial ischemia is a medical condition characterized by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle, usually due to the obstruction or narrowing of coronary arteries. This restriction in blood supply deprives the heart muscle of oxygen and vital nutrients, leading to potential damage or cell death. The most common cause of myocardial ischemia is atherosclerosis, where the arteries become narrowed by the buildup of fatty deposits, cholesterol, and other substances. The condition can manifest with symptoms such as chest pain or discomfort, known as angina, and in severe cases, it can result in a heart attack. Timely diagnosis and intervention are crucial to managing myocardial ischemia and preventing further complications, emphasizing the importance of lifestyle modifications, medication, and, in some cases, surgical interventions to restore blood flow and preserve heart function.
