The ESC/EAS guidelines also mention, that coronary arterial calcification can be used to diagnose your risk (p 126-7). Having LDL of more than 200 mg/dl (5mM) since at least 20 years, my general practitioner suggested the initiation of a statin therapy. We agreed to make the decision dependent on the outcome of a heart CT. It turned out, that at the age of 67, my CAC score was well below the 50% percentile of my age group.I kind of expected this result, having a BMI of 27, daily exercise and no cardiovascular risk in the family. Ironically, my attempts to avoid any regular medication was flouted, when I had my first attack of gout 3 years later, despite (high-) normal uric acid levels.

Thank you. Super helpful info. Oddly, my symptoms began with my COVID 60 days ago... and my Doc prescribed a low dose of prednisone. Oops. Which kept me up all night with heart palpitations. I think that's where it began. Doctors still really suck at diagnosing this condition. Been i7-8 level npain for months and all I needed was two Advil? You gotta be kidding me?

I think diet is indivisual specific ,effect of diet depends of how your body is constructed to react and consume and burn that food that you consume....

At 50, and refusing a statin prescription for ldl at 120,with 59 Hdl and 70 triglycerides had a CAC of 0, pcp finally relented and said just keep doing what you're doing.

Best video explanation. I just had one done and Im at 97 percentile. Doctor prescribed cholesterol meds

I’m 53 and got my results today. My score was 55.

actually i am student of pre medical and starting medicine next year so interested in doctor'life so therefore watch your video Sir and want to become cardiologist

God, I love cardiology. this video pumped me up.

I am in highschool and want to become a cardiologist so please wish me luck

The virus lunacy again.

Sir do you earn 600k dollars a year as a cardiologist? Plz reply in yes or no. Thanks a lot.

@marcKatzmd Great Video. I have been hearing how current thinking indicates that Triglycerides are more important than LDL because Triglycerides become the much more dangerous VLDL. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

I’ve just had this I can’t take ibuprofen because I am asthmatic so had to use Codeine

Lol. I thought it was an issue only here in Pakistan. I guess cardiology and pre-op risk assessment is the same all over the world. 😅

Very confident doctor. I have a few questions: What if Crp reduces but Esr remain in 40s? Is a thin film of about 3mm of PE of any significance? Does the patient keep on repeating 2-D echo to see that quantity of fluid is not increasing? If so how often? Any other diagnostic tests? Lastly can the fluid go away in its own ?

While AI can help physicians with a variety of activities, it cannot take the place of the human touch and knowledge that are necessary to deliver high-quality medical care.

Disagree. After I have seen many other cardiologists speak.

Sir i am bit little confuse I've heard surgeons are physicians to so when a cardiac surgeon can do surgery and prescribe medicine than why are cardiologist made , like when a general surgeon can do surgery and gives medicine for general disease than why internal medicine doctors are made

Best analysis on RUclips.

Cardiology ❤️

Elevated homocysteine and inflammation play as much or more role in heart attack and stroke. Cut out seed oils and eat more animal fat including butter and ghee.

My calcium score is 4500

Very helpful!!!!

what bothers me the most is the fear that blocks AI from being develloped for the greater good , i see no problem from having a doctor that is more capable in the field of medecine , AI needs alot of training to reach such stage but humans (goverments) are blocking the way already.

My stress test was great..but have build up in 6 arteries. God willing I can make it into my 80s.

My husband had a zero calcium score but a 90 percent blockage!!!! Now he has a stent. ❤❤❤❤❤

I appreciated the way you explain this. Genetically I got it. Build up in 6 arteries. My score was 370. I am 61 and going for an updated c t next week. I love the way you are explaining this. Thank you❤❤❤❤❤❤

I got it 😊

Sir please tell what is the thing that cardiologist can do and cardiac surgeon can't i mean surgeons are physicians to so they can prescribe medicine they also studied medicine so what is the use of cardiologists

I just had chest pain watching this! 😂

HAHAHA! I’m also cardiology 🫀 and yes, this convo about SSI/Lantus make me feel like an “ortho bro” when I have to ask the hospitalist to help manage it.😂

Wait, where do you typically click to increase lead gain?

Great video! In my town, anxiety is much more likely to be the original cause of palpitations and sinus tachycardia... 😂😂

Amazing! Was looking for the explanation of what exactly is “sinus” rhythm and there was no clear criteria mentioned anywhere ! Thanks ! You should create more such videos :)

What if you do not have high cholesterol? Do you need to have this test? I have an A1C of 5.7 and my doctor wants me to take a statin or get this test. I opted for the test because I don’t want to take a statin. What are your thought about this if a patient doesn’t have high cholesterol

Roughly how many people who apply for cardiology fellowships get in?

Just as many people with low cholesterol as high have atherosclerosis and heart attacks. Stop making cholesterol the villain. Cholesterol is essential to good health and quality of life. Look instead at fasting blood sugar and triglycerides. Both should be under 85. You are pretty young - still being taught incorrect info in med school 😮

I really enjoyed this video 👍

Thank you for this video. Should the individual vessel scores, LM, LAD, LCX, RCA, and Other Agatston scores, add up to the Total Agatston score? I ask because mine do not, and I want to know if that is an error. Want to know if there was a calculation error, or if there is something more to calculating the total score than those individual scores.

My husband just had ablation surgery last week for A-fib. He was diagnosed with A-fib and heart failure just under two years ago. All the cardiologists he saw in the last two years put him on beta blockers and other meds to control it. Since the procedure the A-fib is gone but he’s still very winded. The night after the surgery he had a heart attack. My husband has never had high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or clogged arteries. This was a sudden thing when it hit. Two years before this issue hit him he had Lyme disease confirmed with bloodwork. Every GP,nurse,cardiologist, or any health care worker I asked about Lyme-carditis just looked at me like I was nuts. Not one of them had even heard of it. We are located in B.C. Canada and the healthcare system made him wait two full years until the meds began to fail him. He never took the experimental-RNA injection nor did he ever have Covid. What do you suggest we do at this point? Should he go on antibiotics to kill off the bacteria again? Please answer.

Definitely helpful for making personal decisions on choosing a specialty, however, when interviewing for a residency application, you cannot say that "because I don't enjoy anything else", right?🤣

Is hat inside the mind of a cat?

No amount of alcohol consumption is safe. Cardiovascular disease goes down, cancer rate goes in the opposite direction.

Is it dangerous for someone who has hypertension (under medication) to move to a high elevation place, like Denver, Colorado, or Flagstaff, Arizona?

I had long term lyme, and did discover it when get a ACA on mine left lower leg, who was not directly seen by a doctor. I have done tetst and had a antibiotic course for a month where the ACA did fade a way, this is a year ago now, I do not now if I had long term lyme or not, I do not now if a ACA spot on a leg can also occur with short time infection or is there in stead of a normal bulls eye, I did see on pictures earlyer like 2019 I had no aca spot. I have now heart trouble, I have ectopics, more specific I had tests in hospital, like a echo, stresstest, 2 day holter, where nothing was seen, it is benign, but this do not mean that it do feel fine, sometimes I feel the heart jumping and comlete off, and feel in the body that bloodflow is altered, but have not yet get a blackout or dizzy. I comke to mine question now, is it possible the lyme is still there, because of pain in the feets, and silly feeling in hands or body, I had by the way big stress period, and this was a big problem making mine live miserable, caused by a nabure. I have naver experience a heart block like you tell here, except maybe the first grade who is with ectopics but on the ecg there is no block, machine says I have a sinusaritmie, special a supraventrical extrasystoles with abarancy conduction. I ask myself it lyme can also cause this or so, I had a dermatitis borellia, a version of it who cause skin problems. I can afcourse do a test with antibiotics for 2 weeks and see what happens.

Habibi, come to India😂

I’m 20 and been dealing with it for about two weeks now it slowed down some but I’m still not mentally the same does this stuff get better and will I have to live the rest of my life like this?

How much extra can we make by serving in rural area

I want to know what the numbers next to each coronary artery means that when added gives you your total CAC score, ex: left main coronary artery:59 left anterior descending artery:174, you get what I’m asking. Please and thank you

Ai is still at infant stage
