1. Coronary artery disease (CAD) manifests clinically as myocardial ischemia which presents as unstable angina (UAP), non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), or ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
2. According to the WHO, 60% of deaths are caused by cardiovascular disease. The AHA reports that over 1 million Americans experience myocardial infarctions annually. In Indonesia, cardiovascular disease accounts for 26.4% of deaths and 40% of fatalities are due to myocardial infarctions.
3. The pathophysiology of atherosclerosis involves endothelial dysfunction, foam cell formation, oxidation of LDL cholesterol, inflammation, and plaque rupture over many decades as the lesions progress
