Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
- Obstruction or narrowing of the arteries supplying blood to the heart
- Can lead to angina, heart attack, or sudden cardiac death

Heart Failure
- Inability of the heart to pump blood effectively
- Can be caused by CAD, valve problems, or cardiomyopathy

Valvular Heart Disease
- Malfunction of the heart valves, causing either stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (leakage)
- Can lead to heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke

Cardiomyopathy
- Disease of the heart muscle, resulting in weakened or enlarged heart
- Can be caused by genetic factors, inflammation, or toxins

Arrhythmias
- Abnormal heart rhythms
- Can range from harmless to life-threatening
- Types include atrial fibrillation, bradycardia, and tachycardia

Myocarditis
- Inflammation of the heart muscle
- Can be caused by viral or bacterial infections, autoimmune disorders, or toxins

Pericarditis
- Inflammation of the membrane that surrounds the heart
- Can cause chest pain and shortness of breath

Endocarditis
- Infection of the lining of the heart and heart valves
- Can be caused by bacteria or fungi

Hypertension
- High blood pressure
- Increases the risk of CAD, heart failure, stroke, and kidney disease

Congenital Heart Defects
- Birth defects of the heart or great vessels
- Can range from minor to life-threatening
