What happens during the disease - chronic ischaemic heart disease, unspecified

Chronic ischaemic heart disease is caused by a build-up of fatty deposits in the coronary arteries, resulting in a decrease in the amount of oxygen-rich blood that reaches the heart muscle. this causes an inadequate supply of oxygen to the heart, leading to a decrease in the amount of energy available to the heart muscle and a decrease in the efficiency of the heart's pumping action. over time, this can lead to an increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications.
