Study Notes
Types of Angina
- Exercise-induced angina is triggered by physical activity and represents a stable pattern of symptoms.
- Unstable angina represents progression and can arise without physical exertion.
- Variant angina is triggered by coronary vasospasms and occurs while resting, during the night, or during early morning hours.
Angina Symptoms
- Females are more likely to report angina, especially atypical symptoms such as shortness of breath, nausea or indigestion, and fatigue.
- Males are more likely to report typical symptoms such as chest pain or pressure.
Vasospastic Angina
- Vasospastic angina is more likely to occur in females and is triggered by coronary arterial vasospasms.
- It is associated with triggering sudden cardiac death and should be regarded as an emergency.
- Nitroglycerin is used to treat vasospastic angina.
Pathological Analysis
- In females, there is a disconnect observed in pathological analysis, where symptoms do not always correlate with myocardial ischemia.
- Recent studies have identified a mismatch between symptoms and myocardial ischemia in both males and females with angina and myocardial infarction.
Hemodynamic Significance
- The hemodynamic significance of a coronary artery stenosis depends on the flow rate and perfusion pressure.
Quality of Life
- Females are more likely to report a decrease in quality of life due to angina.
- Angina at rest is more common in females.
