Coronary Vasculature<unk>  <unk> , also known as simply perfusion pressure, refers to the pressure gradient that drives coronary blood pressure. The heart's function is to perfuse blood to the body, however the heart's myocardium must, itself, be supplied for its own muscle function. The heart is supplied by coronary vessels and therefor<unk>  is the pressure within those muscles. If pressures are too low in the coronary vasculature, then the myocardium risks ischemia with subsequent myocardial infarction and/or cardiogenic shock.
