Explore the critical link between atherothrombosis, the formation of blood clots on arterial plaque, and its significant role in the development of coronary artery disease. This comprehensive overview explains how artery plaque buildup contributes to dangerous blood clot formation, increasing the risk of major cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes, and highlighting the importance of managing heart disease for overall well-being.

Atherothrombosis and Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) refer to the critical cardiovascular conditions where plaque buildup within arteries leads to the formation of blood clots, severely impairing blood flow to the heart. This process significantly elevates the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other serious cardiac events, making early understanding and management vital for cardiovascular health.
