Book Description:
This new book provides up-to-date research on angina pectoris which and is a
chest pain due to ischemia (a lack of blood and hence oxygen supply) of the
heart muscle, generally due to obstruction or spasm of the coronary arteries
(the heart's blood vessels). Coronary artery disease, the main cause of angina,
is due to atherosclerosis of the cardiac arteries. It is common to equate severity
of angina with risk of fatal cardiac events. There is a weak relationship between
severity of pain and degree of oxygen deprivation in the heart muscle (i.e.
there can be severe pain with little or no risk of a heart attack, and a heart
attack can occur without pain).
Editors: Alice P. Gallos and Margaret L. Jones
