Section 13: Evaluation and Therapy for Heart Failure in the Setting of Ischemic Heart Disease
2010, Journal of Cardiac FailureCitation Excerpt :Strength of Evidence = B) In patients with stable CAD, nitrates improve exercise tolerance and time to onset of angina.116 An overview of small studies of nitrates in acute MI from the pre-thrombolytic era suggested a 35% reduction in mortality rates,117 although 2 trials formally tested this hypothesis in patients with suspected acute MI and failed to confirm this magnitude of benefit.118,119
Chronic coronary artery disease: Diagnosis and management
2009, Mayo Clinic ProceedingsCitation Excerpt :The first step is to identify and treat any associated diseases that can precipitate angina by increasing myocardial oxygen demand (such as tachycardia and hypertension) or by decreasing the amount of oxygen delivered to the myocardium (such as heart failure, pulmonary disease, or anemia). The second step is to manage CAD risk factors as well as to prevent MI with lifestyle changes and pharmacological treatment, as shown in Table 6.40–74 In 2006, despite therapeutic advances, 9.8 million patients had angina in the United States,1 and thus the beneficial effect of aggressive secondary prevention cannot be overemphasized.
