Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, usually caused by atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis (sometimes called "hardening" or "clogging" of the arteries) is the buildup of cholesterol and fatty deposits (called plaques) on the inner walls of the arteries. These plaques can restrict blood flow to the heart muscle by physically clogging the artery or by causing abnormal artery tone and function. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common type of heart disease. It is the leading cause of death in the world.
Coronary Artery Disease MHS Score is a medical app designed to help primary care physician when examining patient with chest pain. Marburg Heart Score or MHS is used to rule out the coronary artery disease (CAD) in patient with chest pain. A primary care patient with Marburg Heart Score (MHS) ≤2 generally does not need urgent evaluation of chest pain. A primary care patient with a Marburg Heart Score (MHS) ≥3 does not necessarily have unstable coronary artery disease (CAD), but since unstable coronary artery disease (CAD) cannot be excluded, such patients generally warrant more urgent evaluation or inpatient admission.
All calculations must be re-checked and should not be used alone to guide patient care, nor should they substitute for clinical judgment. Calculations in this app might be different with your local practice. Consult to expert doctor whenever necessary. Please seek a doctor’s advice in addition to using this app and before making any medical decisions.
