Angina pectoris Angina pectoris is Latin for “squeezing of the chest”
What is angina?
• Angina–also sometimes called angina pectoris—is a symptom of an underlying heart condition.
• It means that the heart is not getting enough blood and as a result, not enough oxygen.
• This decrease of oxygen being delivered to the muscle of the heart happens if one or more coronary arteries are narrowed or blocked, a condition called atherosclerosis

Angina pectoris
.
Your body is telling you that your risk for a heart attack or
cardiac arrest is increased.
Very simply, angina is your heart’s way of getting your attention
![Page 5: Angina pectoris by student at ahram canadian university](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020410/587c0f8d1a28ab03768b64c1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Angina pectoris
• An angina attack is not the same as a heart attack, although many of the symptoms are the same
• An angina attack may be provoked by extremes in emotion (being very angry or upset), eating a large meal or eating it very quickly, doing more exercise than usual (overexerting yourself), being exposed to extremes in temperature (too hot or too cold), or smoking.
• If the angina is a result of physical activity, stopping the activity generally stops the pain.
• But no matter what the cause of the chest pain or discomfort, it is important that you get medical attention as soon as possible.

Angina pectoris
1) chest discomfort
2) pressure/tightness
3) burning
4) choking/breathlessness
5) pain
6) discomfort at other sites:
7) epigastrum
8) shoulders/arms
9) neck/jaw
10) nausea
11) diaphoresis

Angina pectoris
• 1) stable (typical) angina :
• The most common form of angina
• consequence of coronary atherosclerosis
• presents in physical activity, emotional
stress etc.
• predictable, reproducible (exertion)
• worse in cold conditions and after meals.
• usually lasts less than 5 minutes
![Page 8: Angina pectoris by student at ahram canadian university](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020410/587c0f8d1a28ab03768b64c1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Angina pectoris
• 1) stable (typical) angina :occurs when the heart has to work harder than normal.
It has a regular pattern, and if you already know that you have stable angina,
you will be able to predict the pattern.
Once you stop exercising, or take medication (usually nitroglycerin) the pain
goes away, usually within a few minutes.
![Page 10: Angina pectoris by student at ahram canadian university](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020410/587c0f8d1a28ab03768b64c1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Angina pectoris • 1) unstable angina :crescendo/pre-infarction
angina
• Is more serious, and may be a sign that a heart attack could happen soon.
• There is no predictable pattern to this kind of angina.
• It can just as easily occur during exercise as it can while you are resting.
• It should always be treated as an emergency. People with unstable angina are at increased risk for heart attacks, cardiac arrest, or severe cardiac arrhythmias (irregular heartbeat or abnormal heart rhythm).

Angina pectoris • 1) unstable angina :• Intermediate state between stable angina and MI
(myocardial infarction).
• A presentation of “acute coronary syndromes” (ACS)
• May appear unexpectedly, at rest often not associated with physical activity.
• Usually a consequence of severe coronary Atherosclerosis possibly complicated by a Rupture and thrombus formation
• Management similar to that of MI
• might last as long as 30 minutes and might become progressively worse
• cannot be relieved with rest or medication

Angina pectoris Less common kinds of angina include:
1) variant angina
2) microvascular angina
3) atypical angina
![Page 15: Angina pectoris by student at ahram canadian university](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020410/587c0f8d1a28ab03768b64c1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Angina pectoris variant angina ( prinzmetal’s angina ) ( vasospasticangina ) :
often occurs while someone is resting (usually between midnight and 8:00 in the morning), and it has no predictable pattern—that is, it is not brought on by exercise or emotion.
This kind of angina may cause severe pain, and is usually the result of a spasm in a coronary artery.
Most people who have variant angina have severe atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), and the spasm is most likely to occur near a buildup of fatty plaque in an artery.

Angina pectoris
Microvascular angina:
sometimes referred to as Syndrome X—occurs
when tiny vessels in the heart become narrow and
stop functioning properly, even if the bigger
arteries are not blocked by plaque.
Usually it is treated with common angina
medications
![Page 18: Angina pectoris by student at ahram canadian university](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020410/587c0f8d1a28ab03768b64c1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Angina pectoris
• Atypical angina often doesn’t cause pain, but
you may feel a vague discomfort in your chest,
experience shortness of breath, feel tired or
nauseous, have indigestion, or pain in your back
or neck.
• Women are more likely than men to have
feelings of vague chest discomfort.
![Page 19: Angina pectoris by student at ahram canadian university](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020410/587c0f8d1a28ab03768b64c1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Angina pectoris Risk factors for angina are similar to those for other heart disease, and include:
1) high blood pressure
2) diabetes
3) unhealthy cholesterol levels
4) smoking
5) lack of exercise
6) obesity
7) too much salt in your diet
8)excessive use of alcohol
9)family history of CAD or stroke
10) being male
11) being a postmenopausal woman
age - the risk increases for men over the age of 45 and for women over the age of 55
