What is SCAD? Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) is a tear in an artery wall in your heart that allows blood to build up in the space between the layers of your artery wall. This causes a decrease in the blood flow or a complete blockage of blood flow to your heart – damaging your heart muscle and heart rhythm. This reduced blood flow could cause a heart attack or cardiac arrest. https://scadbc.com/membership daily 0.75 2023-09-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a6e7b80bff200fdbcea3b8b/1548196853795-D8A7CXGSVWUOC9QA4RR9/SCAD%2Bgroup.jpg About Us Our first ever SCAD 5 k run/walk here in Vancouver, BC.

Type 2 SCAD is the most common type of SCAD present and has been reported in over 60 percent of SCAD patients. Type 3 SCAD is rare and mimics atherosclerosis. There is focal or tubular stenosis but no atherosclerosis in the other coronary arteries.
