Cardiomyocytes<\/span><\/h6>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text animation=”animation top-to-bottom”]\n

We are all born with a set number of heart cells or cardiomyocytes (CM) and you need to maintain these to live a normal, healthy life.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Inadequate blood flow to the heart (ischemia), which occurs during heart disease, causes physiological stress to cardiac cells. Stress lasting more than approx. 30 mins causes death of the cells and lasting damage whereas reversal of ischemia within this period preserves cellular function.<\/p>\n

This loss of CMs can be significant during myocardial infarction (MI) when as many as 25% of the total 2-4 billion cells in the affected area can die and cannot be replaced by the body.<\/p>\n

The extent of cell loss during an MI event defines future cardiac health and a patients healthy lifespan. In the US the median time from MI symptoms to treatment (usually percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or “stent”) is 185 mins, meaning most patients experience inevitable irreversible damage, with damage increasing in those patients with delayed time to PCI.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5vh”]\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/i><\/span>\t\t\tLearn More<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t[vc_empty_space height=”8vh”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”10vh”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row thb_full_width=”true” thb_row_padding=”true” thb_column_padding=”true” full_height=”yes” content_placement=”top” css=”.vc_custom_1701870681388{border-top-width: 15px !important;border-right-width: 15px !important;border-left-width: 15px !important;background-color: #f4f6f7 !important;border-left-color: #ffffff !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #ffffff !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #ffffff !important;border-top-style: solid !important;}” el_id=”Cardiovascular”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”15vh”][vc_row_inner content_placement=”top”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1701777718893{padding-right: 5vw !important;}” animation=”animation bottom-to-top”]\n

  • With one heart attack every 40 seconds, cardiovascular disease is the #1 cause of death globally<\/li>\n
  • Cardiovascular disease (CVD) costs the US $250 billion each year<\/li>\n
  • Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) affects 3 million people around the world annually, including over 805,000 patients in the US and 750,000 in the EU<\/li>\n
  • 50% of patients who suffer AMI die within 5 years<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1701811342497{padding-top: 2vh !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_empty_space mobile_height=”6vh” height=””]\t
