	US FDA/CDRH: FDA Statement on Coronary Drug-Eluting Stents
		Stent thrombosis in patients who receive DES is a primary area of interest for the agency because of the potential for serious adverse outcomes—even though stent thrombosis occurs at low rates.
		The CYPHER Sirolimus-eluting Coronary Stent is indicated for improving coronary luminal diameter in patients with symptomatic ischemic disease due to discrete de novo lesions of length ≤ 30 mm in native coronary arteries with reference vessel diameter of ≥2.5 mm to ≤3.5 mm.
		The TAXUS Express Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent System is indicated for improving luminal diameter for the treatment of de novo lesions ≤28 mm in length in native coronary arteries ≥2.5 to ≤3.75 mm in diameter.

	InfraReDx - new insight into Coronary Artery Disease
		Such plaques, which cannot be detected by commonly-used tests such as a treadmill examination and even coronary angiography, are suspected to be the cause of most sudden cardiac deaths and non-fatal heart attacks.
		Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in developed nations.
		The cause of most heart attacks is rupture of a plaque in the coronary arteries followed by formation of a clot that blocks the flow of blood to heart muscle.

	Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (Heart Bypass Surgery, CABG) Information on MedicineNet.com
		According to the American Heart Association 427,000 coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgeries were performed in the United States in 2004, making it one of the most commonly performed major operations.
		Coronary artery disease (CAD) occurs when atherosclerotic plaque (hardening of the arteries) builds up in the wall of the arteries that supply the heart.
		When coronary arteries narrow more than 50 to 70%, the blood supply beyond the plaque becomes inadequate to meet the increased oxygen demand during exercise.

	Cause of Coronary Heart Disease and symptoms of Coronary Heart Disease
		The term coronary heart disease covers a group of clinical syndromes arising particularly from failure of the coronary arteries to supply sufficient blood to the heart.
		They include angina pectoris, coronary thrombosis or heart attack, and sudden death without infarction.
		A common symptom of heart disease is shortness of breath, which is caused by the blood being deprived of the proper amount of oxygen.

	Heart Disease - Coronary Thrombosis
		This is a blood clot occurring in the arteries of the heart and occluding it (coronary occlusion).
		A blood clot in a blood vessel is a "thrombus." When it becomes detached from vessel walls and floats in the blood it is called an "embolus." The resultant condition is known as "thrombosis." Thrombi may lodge in a heart artery (coronary artery), plug it, and block blood supply to a wedge-shaped heart muscle section.
		The patient is prostrated and falls to the ground with ashen-faced pallor; pain in the heart region is severe, constricting and lancinating; pulse is thready—rapid, irregular and feeble; breathing becomes shallow and rapid; he has clammy, cold perspiration.

	InfoMedics Malaysia
		Later evidence indicated, however, that, though thrombotic occlusion of an atheromatous lesion in a coronary artery is the most common cause of the disorder, the manifestations are the result of the death of an area of heart muscle (infarction).
		Coronary thrombosis is present in a majority of the hearts examined at autopsy and undoubtedly plays an important role.
		Coronary artery bypass surgery is widely used to restore adequate blood flow to the heart muscle beyond severe atheromatous obstruction in the main coronary arteries.

	Coronary thrombosis (heart attack)
		This is known as a coronary thrombosis, a myocardial infarction or heart attack.
		Conversely, plaque rupture leading to a coronary thrombosis often occurs in someone with no previous history of angina.
		An alternative is emergency dilatation (enlarging) of the occluded coronary artery using a balloon, a procedure known as coronary angioplasty.

	Thrombosis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Thrombosis is the formation of a clot or thrombus inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood through the circulatory system.
		The formation of a thrombus is usually caused by an injury to the vessel's wall, either by trauma or infection, and by the slowing or stagnation of blood flow past the point of injury.
		If a bacterial infection is present at the site of thrombosis, the thrombus may break down, spreading particles of infected material throughout the circulatory system (pyemia, septic embolus) and setting up metastatic abscesses wherever they come to rest.

	Book "Myogenic Theory of the Myocardial Infarction"
		The isolated coronary lesions are responsible for the pathological disharmony in the ventriculogram, resulting from the effects of ischemia and loss of regional contractility, in addition to them the mechanical effect of the hemodynamic overload caused by the exaltation of the other non-ischemic ventricular segments during the phase of ventricular ejection.
		In combined lesions of 2 or 3 coronary arteries, the repercussions on the ventriculogram are responsible for the pathological harmony which may lead to infarction of the most injured segment, or else to cardiac insufficiency.
		The net of coronary collateral circulation is not always able to prevent myocardial infarction, because it develops depending on the anatomical features of the obstructive process, and is not always sufficient to face the demands of the physical activity of the coronary patient.

	Thrombosis/Coronary Thrombosis
		Coronary thrombosis is a term used to describe the blockage of a coronary artery secondary to blood clotting within the artery.
		Thrombosis of coronary arteries occurs when the opening, or lumen, of the artery becomes so small that the blood flow through the narrowed segment slows, allowing the blood to clot in the artery.
		Thrombosis of a coronary artery can lead to a heart attack if not treated.

	eMedicine - Coronary Artery Atherosclerosis : Article by Vibhuti N Singh, MD, MPH, FACC, FSCAI
		Coronary artery atherosclerosis or CAD refers to the presence of atherosclerotic changes within the walls of the coronary arteries, which causes impairment or obstruction of normal blood flow with resultant myocardial ischemia.
		Coronary angiography: Coronary arterial luminography remains the criterion standard for defining significant flow-limiting stenoses that must be revascularized through percutaneous or surgical intervention to improve prognosis.
		This usually occurs in diabetic patients, in whom coronary arteries are traditionally described as small-caliber vessels, when that appearance is actually due to the presence of diffuse symmetrical involvement of the entire vessel, as elucidated by recent IVUS studies.

	Thrombosis
		Thrombosis is clearly the most common cause of death in the United States.
		The causes of hypercoagulability and overt thrombosis are becoming more clear and often definitive with enhanced knowledge of hemostasis and the development and extended utilization of testing systems useful for evaluating patients with thrombotic and thromboembolic disorders.
		Thrombosis, be it arterial or venous, can no longer be viewed as a general diagnosis; approaching thrombosis in this manner probably accounts for not only many treatment failures, but also for often confusing and conflicting results of clinical trials.

		Persistent occlusion of the apical portion of the anterior descending artery was attributed to embolization of the proximal thrombus despite AngioJet thrombectomy, distal angioplasty, and intracoronary infusion of both nitroglycerin and adenosine.
		The myocardial infarction was likely caused by in situ coronary thrombosis, perhaps related to transient coronary spasm and transient platelet activation as a result of intense sympathetic activity.

		The clinical manifestations of the chronic development of coronary artery atheroma are angina and acute myocardial infarction.
		But, since the onset of thrombosis in majority of cases is at a later stage, it is unlikely that genetic causes may be the sole determinant.
		The underlying processes that lead to atheroma formation and coronary thrombosis are complex involving various systems that regulate vasoactivity, adhesion molecules, inflammation, lipid metabolism, coagulation and the fibrinolytic pathways2.

	TIME.com: CORONARY THROMBOSIS -- Oct. 3, 1955 -- Page 1
		The clot is a thrombus, the process of its formation is thrombosis, and if it happens in one of the coronary arteries, it is coronary thrombosis (while there are medical distinctions in their precise use, the terms "coronary occlusion" and "cardiac infarction" are generally synonymous with "coronary thrombosis").
		A mild coronary thrombosis could be one in which a relatively small coronary artery has been closed and a small heart area has suffered damage.
		The symptoms of coronary thrombosis vary greatly from patient to patient, but nearly always include a cramping pain in the chest that is sometimes very similar to the "gas pains" of indigestion.

		Rupture of a plaque sets off the acute coronary thrombosis that causes heart attack (myocardial infarction) and unstable angina.
		Inflammation of the endothelium, the lining cells of the inside of the arteries, is also caused by raised homocysteine levels.
		We still favour the theory put forward in 1885 by von Rokitanski, which says that thrombosis is the common factor in the way this disease develops.
