3. InBrief The relationship between respiratory and cardiovascular diseasesand theeffect of cardiovascular diseases in patients with respiratory disease are stillunclear. This study determines the relationship between the individual cardiovascular disease with the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma and interstitial lung disease (ILD). Pulmonary disease is independentlyassociated with cardiac conditions, mostly during Heart Failure (HF), and Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD), which significantly contributes to all-causemortality.

4. Introduction The thoracic cavity contains the heart and the lungs, which are intimatelyconnected. Though they are independent organ with different functions, they work together to ensure that all the cells in the body get the oxygen tosurvive. Breathing or the inhalation process is spontaneous and are effortless, but at times it can be very challenging. The complications present in the respiratory system or lungs such asinfection, inflammation, allergies, asthma, bronchitis can lead to difficulties inbreathing. Contd..

6. Exchange of Gases between the Heart andLungs: The primary function of the heartis to pump the blood around the body, and that circulation process takes blood into the lungs to top up the oxygen and removes other gases presents in the blood as it makes sure the Red Blood Cells areoxygenated. The exchange of gasses in the blood is the coordination process between the heart and lungs, and the oxygen attaches to a protein called haemoglobin in theRBC. The charged or the oxygenated blood returns to the heart where it will be pumped back tothe tissues and organs of the body through the blood vessels andcapillaries. The body cells use the transported oxygen and release CO2, which as de-oxygenated blood will be moved back to the heart through veins and further the heart pumps it into thelungs.

7. How can the Heart AffectBreathing? The function of the human body is a delicate and finely balanced system, so when some significant part of the organs goes wrong, it can have enormous effects infunction. For instance, the heart is damagedor diseased, and it cannot be able to pump efficiently, and that can significantly affect the lungs, meaning that breathing can beimpaired.

8. Pulmonary Abnormalities and its Association with CardiacDisease: Pulmonary abnormalities are often present in patients with respiratory disorders, which includes neuromuscular, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, sarcoidosis and idiopathic pulmonaryfibrosis. The interactions between the cardiovascular systemand the lungs has been increasingly studied, the most common cause of pressure overload is Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension(PAH). Pulmonary hypertension is classified as Group III in World Health Organization (WHO) scheme, and it is also known as pulmonary heartdisease. The development of pulmonary heart disease is typically related to weakerprognosis and increaseddeath.

9. How Cardiac Disease Affects the PulmonarySystem? The evolving researchdata regarding pulmonary vascular abnormalities in the most common respiratorydisorders. It is mandatory to explore the relationship between cardiovascular death, and Chronic Obstructive PulmonaryDisease, atherosclerosis, and systemicinflammation. Cardiovascular disease and respiratory disorder are frequently coexisting as the shared risk factors arecommon. There are extensive datato show that lung diseases, particularly chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, adversely affect the prognosis of patients with cardiacconditions.

10. Conclusion Cardiovascular and respiratory diseases are the leading causes of premature death worldwide where half of all deaths from cardiovascular disease are quick and unexpected. Though studying two major organs and its relation involves more complexity in identifying new procedures as research professional develop their understanding of some of the most common and rarer types of heart and lungdiseases. The complex nature of the cardiac and respiratory disease will also be explored, particularly concerning the coordination between cardiovascular death, atherosclerosis, and systemicinflammation.
