Silent Myocardial Ischemia [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2003
Silent myocardial ischemia is defined as objective documentation of myocardial ischemia in the absence of angina or anginal equivalents. Since its original description in the 1970s, it has undergone intensive investigation, and its clinical significance is now well established.

Silent Ischemia: Silent After All? [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Cardiology, 2008
To examine the association of nonpain symptoms in men and women with exercise-related silent ischemia, as well as the independence of these findings from other clinical factors.A prospective study of 482 women and 425 men (mean age 58 years) undergoing exercise stress testing with myocardial perfusion imaging.

Silent myocardial ischemia

American Heart Journal, 1989
As an introduction the main aspects concerning clinical picture, subgroups, pathophysiology, frequency, prevalence and incidence, diagnosis, prognosis and therapy of silent ischemia are summarized: 1) CLINICAL PICTURE: Transient silent ischemia (SMI), silent infarction, relationship to sudden cardiac death, ischemic "cardiomyopathy".

Nitrates in Silent Ischemia

Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 1994
In recent years it has become clear that episodes of transient myocardial ischemia commonly occur in patients with coronary artery disease in the absence of chest pain or angina equivalent. These episodes of "silent myocardial ischemia" are particularly well documented during continuous ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring in daily life. Evidence

Silent Ischemia: A Hypothetical Mechanism

Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, 1993
Ischemia of visceral organs, especially the heart, is often a painful and potentially life-threatening condition. However, in at least 75% of all cases myocardial ischemia may be "silent" (i.e., without pain or sensation). Yet, the mechanisms responsible for silent ischemia are not well understood. As such, many different theories have been advanced to

Silent myocardial ischemia

Current Opinion in CARDIOLOGY, 1986
Silent myocardial ischemia has emerged from a subject of mainly research interest to one with important clinical implications for practicing physicians. Although the pathophysiologic mechanisms responsible for the absence of pain are still not clear, it is apparent that episodes of silent myocardial ischemia are frequent and occur in many patients with
