The hallmark of unstable angina is its unpredictability. The symptoms, which occur without provocation, sometimes stabilize or resolve but sometimes progress to myocardial infarction or sudden death. This pattern contrasts with that of stable angina.

European Heart Journal, 1993
Treatment of both stable and unstable angina depends on initially defining the pathophysiological mechanisms. The goal of treatment is to prevent the development of angina pectoris and possibly also to improve the prognosis. beta-blockade is effective in treating effort-related angina, as are calcium antagonists, which are also effective in treating ...

Unstable angina and thrombolysis
Chest, 1990Unstable angina occurs in a heterogeneous population of patients. In the subset of patients with recent rest angina, both angiographic and angioscopic studies have suggested that coronary artery thrombus is often present and serves as a predictor of subsequent adverse clinical events, including recurrent angina, myocardial infarction, the need for ...

Survey of Anesthesiology, 2000
Unstable angina accounts for more than 1 million hospital admissions annually1; 6 to 8 percent of patients with this condition have nonfatal myocardial infarction or die within the first year after diagnosis.2,3 Various definitions of unstable angina have been proposed, but in 1989, Braunwald devised a classification system to ensure uniformity of ...

Unstable angina is a common condition that presents a challenge to physicians because of its complex pathophysiology, and because of the high incidence of associated death and myocardial infarction. This article summarizes key strategies that can be employed in managing unstable angina and describes their interaction with the mechanisms that underpin ...

Pharmacotherapy of Unstable Angina
The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1992All patients with unstable angina should be admitted to a coronary or an intensive care unit. There should be an attempt to classify the patient according to the proposed Braunwald nomenclature. If the patient has a secondary cause for unstable angina (e.g., tachyarrhythmia, heart failure, fever, thyrotoxicosis, severe hypertension, hypoxia, unusual ...

Echocardiography in Unstable Angina
Cardiology, 1981This study was undertaken to determine whether abnormalities on the echocardiograms of patients with unstable angina have any prognostic significance. 27 male patients, mean age 53 years, who fulfilled criteria for unstable angina and who responded to medical therapy, had echocardiograms within 48 h of admission and at discharge.

Unstable angina is a syndrome which comprises a spectrum of symptomatic manifestations of coronary artery disease which lies between stable angina pectoris and acute myocardial infarction. Patients fall into three groups: angina of recent onset (4 weeks), angina of changing pattern, and angina occurring at rest (longer than 15 minutes).

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1999
SummaryUnstable angina (UA) and non-Q-wave myocardial infarction (NQWMI) are acute coronary syndromes with repeated, severe ischemic events of short duration. These events are mainly due to a rapid decrease in coronary blood flow, and to a rapid, reversible reduction of the arterial lumen in localized areas.
