The function of the heart  is to circulate blood throughout the body by: ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
2 coronary arteries branch from the main aorta just above the aortic valve. “No larger than drinking straws, they divide and encircle the heart to cover its surface with a lacy network that reminded physicians of a slightly crooked crown ( coronary  comes from the Latin  coronarius , belonging to a crown or wreath). They carry out about 130 gallons of blood through the heart muscle daily.” (Clark, 119)   Blood Supply To The Heart                                                                                                                     
Coronary Artery Disease ,[object Object]
 
“ Cardiovascular disease claimed 39.4 percent of all deaths or 1 of every 2.5 deaths in the United States in 2000. CVD was about 60 percent of “total mention mortality.” This means that of over 2,400,000 deaths from all causes, CVD was listed as a primary or contributing cause on about 1,415,000 death certificates.” (American Heart Disease) Mortality
