Please can someone define triple vessel disease for me? I'm a student nurse studying for an exam about Coronary Artery Bygrafting and I've been unable to find a clear definition of this condition.

I am stuck with some work ive got to find 2 exaples of radiation in my home but i dont really undertand the word and what it means?

HCl+Mg reaction question?

the coronaries are divided into left and right - coming from the left and right aortic cusps

the left then divides into the left anterior descending and cirucmflex

and that makes three !

all three are blocked in triple vessel disease
