Definiția și Sensul lui "coronary thrombosis"

What is "coronary thrombosis"?

Coronary thrombosis is a condition where a blood clot forms in one of the coronary arteries, which supply oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle. When a clot blocks blood flow to a part of the heart, it can lead to a heart attack. This blockage can cause chest pain, shortness of breath, and other symptoms. Coronary thrombosis often occurs due to underlying coronary artery disease, where fatty buildup gathers in the arteries and can burst, leading to clot formation. Treatment for coronary thrombosis typically involves emergency medical care to restore blood flow to the heart, which may include medications, procedures, and lifestyle changes to reduce the risk of future events.
