5: 38 AM 5
Angina pectoris Most common symptom of IHD. Angina = discomfort in the chest that occurs when the blood supply to the myocardium is compromised. 5: 38 AM 6
IHD -CAD Chronic stable angina • chronic and predictable occurrence of chest discomfort due to transient myocardial ischemia with physical exertion or other conditions that ↑ oxygen demand Prinzmetal’s or variant angina • spasm or contraction of a normal or diseased coronary artery • generally transient, may persist long enough to infarct the myocardium. 5: 38 AM Acute coronary syndrome • rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque with subsequent platelet adherence, activation , and aggregation, and the activation of the clotting cascade. • Ultimately, a thrombus forms composed of fibrin and platelets. 7

Epidemiology The leading cause of death for both men and women in the United States The incidence of IHD is higher in middle-aged men compared to women. However, the rate of IHD ↑s two to three fold in women after menopause. 5: 38 AM 9
Risk Factors 5: 38 AM 10
5: 38 AM 11
Metabolic syndrome is a constellation of cardiovascular risk factors related to hypertension, abdominal obesity , dyslipidemia , and insulin resistance. The risk of developing IHD and related complications is two-fold higher in patients with metabolic syndrome. 5: 38 AM 12

Clinical presentation Symptoms of Angina Pectoris • Pain (quality , location , duration , provoking factors , and relieving factors ) • radiate to the neck, jaw, shoulder, back, or arm. • be accompanied by dyspnea, nausea, vomiting, or diaphoresis. • provoked by : 1 -exertion 2 emotional stress 3 -exposure to cold temperatures 4 -heavy meals. • Relieved within minutes by rest or nitroglycerin Pain that occurs at rest (without provocation) or that is prolonged and unrelieved by nitroglycerin is indicative of an ACS. 5: 38 AM 20
Silent ischemia In some cases , ischemia may not produce any symptoms and is termed “silent ischemia. ” Diabetics may experience associated symptoms as dyspnea and diaphoresis, without having any of the classic chest pain symptoms. 5: 38 AM 21

Non-atherosclerotic Conditions that Can Cause Angina-like Symptoms 5: 38 AM 23
Presentation of ACS midline anterior anginal chest discomfort, occur at rest , as a severe new onset, or as an increasing angina that is at least 20 minutes in duration. may radiate to the shoulder , down the left arm , and to the back or to the jaw. Associated symptoms which may accompany the chest discomfort include nausea , vomiting, diaphoresis , or shortness of breath. While similar to stable angina , the duration may be longer and the intensity greater. On physical exam , no specific features are indicative of ACS 5: 38 AM 24

Diagnosis Physical examination Coronary angiography Biochemical Markers ECG 5: 38 AM 26
1 - Physical examination Medical history and physical exam 1 - ascertain cardiovascular risk factors 2 - exclude non-ischemic and non-cardiac conditions Cardiac findings on the physical exam are often normal in patients with chronic stable angina. 5: 38 AM 27
Stable Vs Unstable angina Provoked by increase in O 2 demand Sudden decrease in O 2 supply Reproducible with exertion At rest without precipitating factors Reversible Prolonged symptoms (>20 minutes) (relieved by rest & nitroglycerin) Less responsive to rest & medication 5: 38 AM 28
2 - Electrocardiogram (ECG) 5: 38 AM 29
Acute coronary syndrome NSTE ACS (NSTE MI) Unstable angina • Ischemia is not severe enough to produce myocardial necrosis • No elevation of biochemical markers of MI e. g. Troponin I or T & CK (MB) • formerly known as non–Q-wave or nontransmural MI • limited to the subendocardial myocardium. • smaller and not as extensive as an STE MI • a pathologic Q wave on the ECG is less commonly seen. 5: 38 AM STE ACS (STE MI) • formerly known as Q-wave or transmural MI, • typically results in an injury that transects the thickness of the myocardial wall. 30
5: 38 AM 31
ECG A resting ECG is indicated in all patients with angina-like symptoms. A 12 -lead ECG should be done within 10 minutes of presentation to the emergency department 5: 38 AM 32
Stress testing Exercise ECG testing using either a treadmill (most commonly) or bicycle ergometer is a common non-invasive test A radioactive element (thalium TI 201) selective for heart tissues may be injected for imaging. Pharmacologic stressors are used for patients who are unable to exercise Dobutamine is used with stress echocardiography, adenosine or dipyridamole for nuclear imaging studies 5: 38 AM 33
3 - Coronary angiography (cardiac catheterization or “cardiac cath”) is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of IHD Indicated when: 1 -stress testing results are abnormal 2 -symptoms of angina are poorly controlled. 5: 38 AM 34
4 - Biochemical Markers 5: 38 AM 35
4 - Biochemical Markers (troponin and CK-MB) Blood is obtained from the patient 3 times: once in the emergency department and two additional times over the next 12 to 24 hours in order to measure. A single measurement of a marker is not adequate to exclude a diagnosis of MI If at least one troponin value is greater than the MI decision limit or two CKMB results are greater than the MI decision limit MI If early reinfarction is suspected , CK-MB is the preferred diagnostic test 5: 38 AM 36

Long acting nitrates use in IHD Monotherapy for the prevention of recurrence of symptoms should be avoided Why? • Reflex increases in sympathetic activity and heart rate may occur. • Patients are unprotected from ischemia during the nitrate-free interval. β-Blockers and calcium channel blockers are dosed to provide 24 -hour protection from ischemia. Monotherapy may be appropriate in patients who have low blood pressure or who experience symptomatic hypotension with low doses of β -blockers or calcium channel blockers. 5: 38 AM 50
Nitrate tolerance The cause of tolerance is unclear , several mechanisms have been proposed: depletion of the sulfhydryl groups necessary for the conversion of nitrates to nitric oxide, activation of neurohormonal systems, increased intravascular volume generation of free radicals that degrade nitric oxide. 5: 38 AM 51
How to avoid tolerance ? allow a daily nitrate-free interval 8 to 12 hrs • interval should occur when the patient is least likely to experience angina (nighttime hours ) 5: 38 AM 52

Assess effectiveness of therapy Assess frequency and intensity of anginal symptoms. Determining the frequency of sublingual nitroglycerin use is helpful 5: 39 AM Assess exercise tolerance of patient 104
Monitor disease progression In case of increasing frequency or intensity, adjust therapy and refer the patient for additional diagnostic testing (e. g. , coronary angiography) and possibly for coronary interventions (e. g. , PCI or CABG surgery). Control risk factors should be assessed regularly. Routine screening for metabolic syndrome Assess the patient for IHD-related complications, such as heart failure. 5: 39 AM 105
Monitor adverse effects of drugs Hemodynamic parameters (BP – HR) should be routinely monitored to assess drug tolerance BP reduction particularly after initiation and dose titration of βblockers with α-blocking effects (e. g. , labetalol and carvedilol). Warn patients that postural hypotension during initiation or uptitration HR: drugs may have negative chronotropic effects (e. g. , bblockers, verapamil, or diltiazem) or may cause reflex tachycardia (e. g. , nitrates or dihydropyridine CCBs). 5: 39 AM 106
Case study A. E. , a 65 -year-old man, has been treated for chronic angina pectoris for 4 years. He refuses cardiac catheterization and revascularization; however, his coronary risk factors include a strong family history of cardiovascular disease and hyperlipoproteinemia. He experienced rheumatic fever at age 12; 5 years ago, his mitral valve was replaced. At that time, he had two-vessel CAD with 80% and 85% occlusion and an LV EF of 30% (normal, 55%). 5: 39 AM 107
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Current medications include a prescription for: SL nitroglycerin; warfarin 5 mg for 5 days/week and 2. 5 mg for 2 days/week; metoprolol 50 mg every day; enalapril 10 mg every day; digoxin 0. 125 mg/day (serum digoxin concentration drawn 18 hours after the last dose is 0. 7 ng/m. L); oral simvastatin 40 mg every day; and furosemide 40 mg/day. 5: 39 AM 108
At his regular follow-up visit with his cardiologist, A. E. reports an increase in weekly anginal attacks over the last 2 months during his daily routine of working in his yard. Current vital signs include 1. a blood pressure of 110/60 mm. Hg and 2. a resting heart rate of 60 beats/minute. 5: 39 AM 109
What therapeutic options would be available for A. E. for additional control of his chronic stable angina? A. E. is at goal heart rate and his blood pressure is well controlled on his current regimen, but he continues to have anginal symptoms. A –ve inotrope CCB should not be given because A. E. has evidence of poorly controlled heart failure (EF of 30%). A long-acting nitrate is an option, but this could lower his blood pressure more than is desired. A dihydrpyridine (amlodipine &felodipine) may also lower blood pressure of A. E. Because of the lack of hemodynamic effects, ranolazine is a reasonable option for A. E. , in addition to continuing metoprolol. 5: 39 AM 110
