Home What is? Care pathway Patient centred model ... Editors Chronic Refractory Angina Edition VI Editor-in-chief Dr. M.R.Chester. Director of the UK NHS National Refractory Angina Centre, United Kingdom This Web-book seeks to clarify the key issues relating to chronic refractory angina and its management. An expert group of academics, practicing physicians, health care managers, patients and allied professionals make up the editorial board and have contributed to the various chapters in the book. It is certain that a great deal of new data will emerge over the next few years and in order to avoid the inevitable problems of obsolescence in hard copy text books this Web-book is designed to continuously evolve in the light of new information. It is aimed primarily at primary secondary and tertiary care clinicians, nurses and allied professionals who are faced with difficult clinical decisions. In addition patients and their carers will find the patient-centred treatment guideline simple and straightforward and is designed to empower them to ensure that they and their clinicians goals are the same.

Angina: Chest pain, also called angina (an-JY-nuh). When you have angina, you feel pain in your chest, arms, shoulders, or back. You may feel the pain more when your heart works faster, such as when you exercise. The pain may go away when you rest. You also may feel very weak and sweaty. If you do not get it treated, chest pain may happen more often. If diabetes has damaged the heart nerves, you may not feel the chest pain.

The Statements The Evidence 2.1 Clinical guidelines Stable angina is characterised by exertional chest pain relieved by rest, resulting from the partial obstruction of a coronary artery by atheroma. Angina is more common in men and with increasing age. Overall it is estimated that over a one year period around 1% of the population present with symptoms of angina to their GP and of these around 10% will subsequently have a non-fatal or fatal myocardial infarction i .

General Medical Officer (GMO) Manual: Clinical Section: Cardiovascular Disorders Angina Pectoris Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed (1) Introduction Angina is chest discomfort that occurs when the oxygen supply to the myocardium is insufficient to meet its metabolic demands. Classically, the patient will present with a history of substernal chest discomfort (often not described as a "pain" but as a tightness, squeezing, or pressure-like sensation) occurring with exertion and relieved within minutes with rest. This discomfort may radiate to the neck, jaw, or either arm and may be associated with shortness of breath. The diagnosis of angina depends largely on history. Physical exam and laboratory studies are often normal in the chronic stable angina patient. The electrocardiogram (ECG) will be normal in over a third of patients who are pain free on presentation, but may show evidence of prior infarction, an intraventricular conduction delay, or nonspecific ST-T wave abnormalities. (2) Differential Diagnosis The differential diagnosis of angina includes a broad range of both cardiac and noncardiac causes of chest discomfort. These include gastroesphageal reflux, diffuse esophageal spasm, pericarditis, aortic dissection, musculoskeletal pain, and pulmonary embolus. By considering the quality, duration, location, and precipitating factors of the chest discomfort, it is usually possible to distinguish angina from these other causes of chest pain.

Angina by Rosalyn Carson-DeWitt, MD Definition Causes Risk Factors ... Prevention Definition Angina is a pain or discomfort in the chest that often has a squeezing or pressure-like quality. This discomfort can also be felt in the shoulders, arms, neck, jaws, or back. Anginal pain usually lasts for no more than 2–10 minutes, and is relieved by rest or nitroglycerin. Angina: Most Common Areas of Pain Causes Angina is usually a symptom of coronary artery disease . It occurs when the blood vessels leading to the heart are blocked. This results in less blood, and therefore less oxygen, reaching the heart muscle. When the heart muscle is deprived of oxygen, chest pain and other symptoms result. Types of angina include: Click or Scroll for More Content Stable Angina – has a predictable pattern. A person with stable angina can usually predict what type and level of activity will cause angina, and what level and length of discomfort such activity will produce. For example, a person may often get angina that lasts three to five minutes after walking a half mile up a small incline toward their home. Anginal pain goes away within minutes with rest or the use of a medication called nitroglycerin. It occurs when your heart's need for blood and oxygen is increased by: Exercise, exertion

Figure 2.168 Diagram showing the mechanism of angina pectoris.  A coronary atherosclerotic lesion is present in a branch of the left anterior descending coronary artery.  During exercise, blood flow through the narrowed area becomes inadequate and the region of muscle supplied by that branch (stippled area) becomes ischemic, causing chest pain or angina pectoris.  (Drawing by G.
