Clinical Overview

• Coronary artery disease is a chronic atherosclerotic condition characterised by the progressive accumulation of lipid-rich plaques within the intima of the epicardial coronary arteries, leading to luminal narrowing, reduced myocardial oxygen delivery, and — when plaques rupture — acute thrombotic occlusion resulting in ST-elevation or non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
• The haemodynamic consequences of significant stenosis (≥70% luminal reduction, or fractional flow reserve ≤0.80) include demand-supply mismatch during exertion (stable angina), resting ischaemia in more advanced disease, ventricular remodelling, systolic dysfunction, and ultimately heart failure if left untreated.
• Risk amplifiers such as Type 2 diabetes, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and smoking accelerate plaque burden and confer a substantially higher MACE (major adverse cardiovascular events) risk.
