Creators Name:Manolis, A.J. and Boden, W.E. and Collins, P. and Dechend, R. and Kallistratos, M.S. and Lopez Sendon, J. and Poulimenos, L.E. and Ambrosio, G. and Rosano, G.
Abstract:Stable angina represents a chronic and often debilitating condition that affects daily activities and quality of life in patients with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS). Current European Society of Cardiology guidelines recommend a four-step approach for the medical treatment of patients taking into consideration hemodynamic variables (heart rate and blood pressure) and the presence or absence of left ventricular dysfunction. However, CCS patients often have several comorbidities and risk factors. Thus, a tailored approach that takes into consideration patient risk factors and comorbidities may have additional benefits beyond angina relief. This is a state of the art review of stable angina treatment based on the currently available evidence.
