scopeNote	Coronary heart disease (CHD) is when your coronary arteries (the arteries that supply your heart muscle with oxygen-rich blood) become narrowed by a gradual build-up of fatty material within their walls. https://www.bhf.org.uk/heart-health/conditions/coronary-heart-disease CHD is sometimes called ischaemic heart disease. http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronary-heart-disease/Pages/Introduction.aspx Coronary Artery Disease (Ischemic Heart Disease) Coronary artery disease is a blockage or narrowing (stenosis) of the arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle, often due to a buildup of fatty plaque inside the arteries. A severe enough blockage may cause a heart attack. If not quickly treated, the blockage can cause parts of the heart muscle to die. http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/heart_vascular_institute/conditions_treatments/conditions/coronary_artery.html RD
