Heart

The heart is a vital organ that plays a critical role in maintaining overall health and well-being. It pumps blood to the body and supplies essential oxygen and nutrients to the tissues.

Heart disease, including conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart attack, and stroke, is a leading cause of death worldwide. As of 2021, the leading cause of death in Malaysia is cardiovascular disease (CVD), including heart disease and stroke. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), CVD accounts for approximately 29% of all deaths in Malaysia.

Risk factors for heart disease include smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, and a sedentary lifestyle. It is recommended to have regular heart health check-ups and engage in healthy lifestyle choices to maintain a healthy heart and reduce the risk of heart disease.

Regular check-ups, a healthy diet, and physical activity can help to prevent and manage heart disease. Medications, lifestyle modifications, and in some cases, surgery may be necessary to manage heart conditions.

Advances in medical technology have made it possible to diagnose and treat heart conditions with minimally invasive procedures, preserving the health and function of this critical organ.
