Cardiac Patients

Meaning

Cardiac Patients are individuals who have been diagnosed with, or are undergoing treatment for, conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels, collectively known as cardiovascular disease. In the hormonal health space, this term emphasizes a patient population where endocrine function is a critical component of pathology and management. The interplay between hormones and cardiovascular health is so significant that the specialized field of cardiovascular endocrinology has emerged to address these connections. Proper hormonal assessment is a necessary step in the comprehensive care of these patients.
