Treatment goals depend on the type of heart disease you have, as well as how severe your case is.

Atherosclerotic Disease:
Atherosclerotic diseases include coronary artery disease, carotid artery disease, and peripheral artery disease. The goals of treatment are to prevent symptoms, prevent a heart attack, and slow or stop the worsening of your disease.

Cardiac Arrhythmias:
Treatment may not be needed for an arrhythmia unless it's creating problems or if it may lead to a more severe arrhythmia or complications. In these cases, treatment will focus on regulating your heartbeat.

Heart Valve Disease:
With heart valve disease, your treatment goals will be to protect your heart from more damage, manage your symptoms, and possibly surgically repair any valve problems.

Heart Infections:
When you have a heart infection such as endocarditis, pericarditis, or myocarditis, the main goal of treatment is to get rid of the infection and inflammation in your heart, as well as any symptoms you may be having.

Heart Failure:
Heart failure requires lifelong treatment, but this can help you live a longer, better-quality life. The goal is to reduce your symptoms as much as possible while balancing medications and other treatment options.
