The impact of cardiovascular disease in the body could lead to a heart failure (which the subject will feel an abnormal weakness), angina or heart attacks (which the subject will feel a chest pain, nausea, sweating, pain in the arm and jaw)... It affects more women than men.
The treatments of cardiovascular disease could be drugs (cardiotonic if it is a heart failure, or antihypertensive drug if the subjects have high blood pressure). or it could be a surgery.
The prognosis depends on the habits of the patient, it increases in obese, alcohol intake, smoking cigarets, sedentary lifestyle.
