Chronic Stable Angina Pectoris
Disease-a-Month, 2008Angina pectoris occurs whenever myocardial oxygen demand exceeds oxygen supply; the clinical manifestation is chest discomfort caused by transient myocardial ischemia. A clinical diagnosis of angina has a 90% predictive accuracy for the presence of coronary heart disease (CHD).

Severe atherosclerotic narrowing of one or more coronary arteries is responsible for myocardial ischemia and angina pectoris in most patients with stable angina pectoris. The coronary arteries of patients with stable angina also contain many nonobstructive plaques, which are prone to fissures or rupture resulting in presentation of acute coronary ...

Millions live with chronic stable angina. Incidence is likely to grow as the population ages and as risk factors increase. Similarly, treatment options are expanding. Medical therapies from drug regimens to percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary artery bypass grafts are significantly reducing morbidity and mortality, with additional ...

Abstract Angina pectoris typically manifests as a retrosternal discomfort in the chest and adjacent areas and can vary from being “constricting,” “crushing,” or “squeezing” to mild and pressure-like, with an occasional associated numbing or burning sensation.

Chronic stable angina is a condition where patients experience symptoms of chest pain of a particular character (e.g. angina pectoris) on effort only, due to atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. The hallmarks of stable angina are as follows. First, there must be stable atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, resulting in luminal narrowing(s) in ...

Nitrates are the cornerstone in treatment of anginal episodes of all types and, in most centers, also in prevention of such episodes. The sublingual or intravenous administration of nitrates for relief of pain in patients with an acute anginal episode is universal.

By definition, chronic stable angina is angina that has been stable with regard to frequency and severity for at least 2 months. Chronic stable angina is the initial manifestation of coronary heart disease in approximately 50% of patients. Typically, this type of angina occurs in the setting of atherosclerotic coronary arterial narrowing, although ...

Treatment of patients with chronic stable angina has two main objectives: to improve clinical outcome and to reduce angina symptoms. Prognosis is mainly improved by a reduction in cardiovascular risk factor burden, which may be achieved by appropriate lifestyle changes and, for some risk factors (e.g.
