A

  1. Angina

    Angina is chest pain that typically comes on during exertion or at times of stress.

  2. Aortic aneurysm

    Aortic aneurysm occurs when a part of the aorta becomes weak and becomes enlarged.

  3. Aortic disease

    Aortic stenosis is a narrowing of the aortic valve opening, restricting blood flow to the aorta.

  4. Aortic dissection

    Aortic dissection is when the aorta tears causing blood to rush through.

  5. Aortic regurgitation

    Aortic regurgitation is when the valve blood leaks back into the heart through the valve.

  6. Aortic stenosis

    Aortic stenosis is a disease that affects the main outlet valve of the heart and is the third most common cardiovascular disease.

  7. Arrhythmia (abnormal heart rhythm)

    Arrhythmia is an abnormal heart rhythm, where the heart’s normal rhythm is disrupted.

  8. Atrial fibrillation

    Atrial fibrillation is a heart rhythm disorder, where your heart beats too fast or too slow.

C

  1. Cardiac sarcoidosis

    Cardiac sarcoidosis is a rare heart condition caused by an overreacting immune system. It can affect heart rhythm, blood flow and heart function. Learn more.

  2. Congenital heart disease

    Congenital heart disease is a collective term for a range of birth defects that affect the heart. Learn more about how it is diagnosed and treated.

  3. Coronary heart disease

    Coronary heart disease is caused by the narrowing of the coronary arteries that supply the heart muscle with oxygen-rich blood.

  4. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

    Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the most common form of genetic heart disease, where unusual thickness of the heart muscle makes it harder for the heart to pump blood.

H

  1. Heart failure

    Heart failure occurs when the heart stops being able to pump blood around the body in an efficient way.

  2. Hypertension (high blood pressure)

    Hypertension (high blood pressure) occurs when your blood pressure readings are consistently high - 140/90 or higher.

  3. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

    Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the most common form of genetic heart disease, where unusual thickness of the heart muscle makes it harder for the heart to pump blood.

I

  1. Inherited cardiac conditions

    Inherited cardiac conditions are a group of genetic disorders that affect the heart and major vessels.

L

  1. Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO)

    Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) is a recognised feature of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

T

  1. Tricuspid regurgitation

    Tricuspid regurgitation is when the tricuspid valve of the heart doesn't close properly.

V

  1. Valvular heart disease

    Heart valve disease occurs when the valves of the heart become diseased or damaged.
