Not caused by pathogens Cannot be transmitted to other people Risk factors:

◦ Genetics◦ Life-style◦ Environmental factors

Determined by genes Congenital disease is present at birth

◦ Others don’t show up until later in life Familial Disease Tendency

◦ Disease runs in family

Recessive gene disorders◦ Need recessive gene from

both parents◦ Can be a carrier◦ Cystic fibrosis & sickle cell

anemia Down syndrome

◦ Born with extra chromosome

Sex-linked disorders◦ Linked to x chromosome

(female)◦ Can be recessive in females◦ Color blindness, hemophilia, &

muscular dystrophy

Disease of Cardiovascular system CV system is…

◦ Heart ◦ Blood Vessels

Arteries Vein Capillaries

◦ Blood

Hypertension Arteriosclerosis Atherosclerosis Heart Attack Stroke Arrhythmias Heart Valve Disorder Varicose Veins

High Blood Pressure Normal=120/80 Over 120/80= At risk High=150/90 Thickening of blood vessel walls Narrows passageways for blood

Hardening of the arteries

Narrows blood vessels & blocks blood flow

Atherosclerosis◦ Fat deposits in blood

vessels

Caused by lack of oxygen delivery to cells Coronary heart disease

◦ Blockage of coronary arteries◦ Caused by fat deposits and/or blood clots◦ Causes heart attack

Cardiac Arrest◦ Entire heart stops

Disrupts blood flow to brain No oxygen to brain Brain cells die Caused by fatty deposits, blood clots, or

burst arteries Aneurysm

◦ Weak spot in blood vessel that can burst

Effects◦ Speech◦ Senses◦ Movement◦ Memory◦ Behavior◦ Depending on side of

the brain

4 valves in heart 2 between atria & ventricle 2 between heart & arteries Bypass Surgery

Arrhythmias Abnormal

Varicose VeinsVaricose Veins•Large blue Large blue veinsveins•One-way One-way valves don’t valves don’t workwork

Electrocardiogram (ECG/ EKG)◦ Graphs electrical impulses and heart beats

Stress Test◦ ECG during exercise

Chest X-Ray◦ Picture of heart

Don’t smoke Exercise regularly Manage stress Manage diet

◦ Avoid saturated fat & cholesterol◦ Replace red meat with chicken and fish◦ Eat more fruits & veggies◦ Avoid sweets, oils, & fats
