Abstract

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) relates to a variety of disorders that impact the heart and blood arteries, such as peripheral artery disease, heart failure, coronary artery disease, and stroke. CVD is a major global cause of death that imposes an immense strain on public health and healthcare systems. People of every age group, genders, and socioeconomic backgrounds are affected. Certain risk factors lead to a higher occurrence of CVD in specific populations which include smoking, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, physical inactivity, improper nutrition, and elevated cholesterol levels. The psychological effects on the heart muscles are linked to CVDs such as heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF). The ineffectiveness of the heart's pumping action on the body's cells is the cause of HF. Dyssynchronous atrial contraction with irregular ventricular excitation results from high-frequency stimulation of the atrium, which causes AF.
