NATURAL ANGINA PECTORIS, ISCHEMIA OF EFFORT and CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA CURE? by George Eby revision date: Aug 14, 2005 Article Abstract on PubMed What is Angina Pectoris? According to the American Heart Association , angina pectoris is the medical term for chest pain or discomfort due to coronary heart disease. Angina is a symptom of a condition called myocardial ischemia. It occurs when the heart muscle (myocardium) doesn't get as much blood (hence as much oxygen) as it needs. This usually happens because one or more of the heart's arteries (blood vessels that supply blood to the heart muscle) is narrowed or blocked. Insufficient blood supply is called ischemia. Angina also can occur in people with valvular heart disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (this is an enlarged heart due to disease) or uncontrolled high blood pressure. These cases are rare, though. Typical angina is uncomfortable pressure, fullness, squeezing or pain in the center of the chest. The discomfort also may be felt in the neck, jaw, shoulder, back or arm. Many types of chest discomfort aren't related to angina. Acid reflux (heartburn) and lung infection or inflammation are examples. One needs to go to the Center for Disease Control page to learn that: "Blockages in the arteries in our body is caused by arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) brought on, and/or aggravated, by several health risk factors. The main culprit ingredient is cholesterol, which mostly come from saturated fats that we eat, like red meats (pork, beef, etc.), eggs, butter, lard, dairy products, etc. Ingestion of these foods leads to high level of the bad cholesterol, which thickens the blood consistency, which leads to thick cholesterol "paint" deposits on the inside walls of the tiny coronary arteries, which are only 1 to 3 millimeters in diameter, like the size of a round toothpick. This situation is like using thick paint applied layers after layers, every second, day after day, year after year, onto the inner walls of these tiny pipes. Just like the sewer or drain pipes in our homes, this cholesterol "junk" could clog up our coronary arteries, as small as they are."

Often, the name is shortened to angina. Having angina means you have an increased risk of having a heart attack (myocardial infarction). Angina can be a useful warning sign if it makes you seek timely medical help and avoid a heart attack. Prolonged or unchecked angina can lead to a heart attack or increase your risk of having a heart rhythm abnormality. That could lead to sudden death. Time is very important in regard to angina. The more time your heart is deprived of adequate blood flow, and thus oxygen, the more heart muscle is at risk of heart attack or heart rhythm abnormalities. The longer you have chest pain from angina, the more heart muscle is at risk of dying or malfunctioning. Risk factors for angina include the following: High blood pressure or hypertension High blood fats or cholesterol Diabetes - A common disease of high sugar levels in the blood Smoking Men at higher risk than women Sedentary lifestyle A family history of premature ischemic heart disease Use of stimulants (sympathomimetics), especially nicotine, cocaine or amphetamines - Other stimulants would include theophyllines, inhaled beta-agonists, caffeine, diet pills, and decongestants

Angina is often brought on by exercise. Angina pectoris derives from Latin and translates as 'tight chest'. It feels like an oppressive, heavy, crushing pain or a constricting feeling in the centre of the chest behind the breast bone (sternum) or on the left side of the front of the chest. The pain can radiate out to either one or both arms, more often the left. It can be experienced in the throat, jaw, the stomach and, more rarely, between the shoulder blades. Angina is often brought on by: physical exercise psychological stress extreme cold a heavy meal.

MEDCEU COURSE MATERIAL Study this material before taking your quiz. By the end of this course, the learner will be able to: Identify the clinical symptoms of angina. Describe three types of angina. Identify the major diagnostic tests for angina. Identify the various medical therapies for angina including invasive therapeutic procedures. Overview: A typical patient with angina is 50-60 year-old male or a 65 to 75-year old woman. The Framingham Study, a long term study started in 1949 consisting of 5127 men and women who since have been examined at two-year intervals to determine factors relating to the development of heart disease, has determined that one in four men with angina can expect to have a myocardial infarction within 5 years; that for women the risk is about half that for men; and that the 8-year mortality rate in patients with angina who are over 55 is about 30%, of which about 44% of the deaths will be sudden. Angina is estimated to effect 7,120,000 people in the United States and 350,000 new cases of angina occur each year. The estimated crude prevalence of angina: for non-Hispanic white women is 4.1%, for men is 3.4%; for non-Hispanic black women 4.6%, and men 2.6%; for Mexican-American women 4.6% and men 3.4%.
