The Angina Center Angina pectoris is a type of temporary chest pain , pressure or discomfort. It is the primary heart disease symptom. Stable angina attacks happen only when the heart needs extra oxygen, like during exercise. Unstable attacks are unpredictable. Angina is one of the main heart disease symptoms of cardiac ischemia a condition in which the heart is not getting enough oxygen-rich blood to feed itself and the rest of the body. This occurs because blood flow is restricted by any of the following: Clogged arteries, which are often a sign of coronary artery disease Problem in the aortic valve, such as regurgitation (leaking) or stenosis (narrowing). Problem in the heart muscle (e.g., hypertrophic subaortic stenosis). Although an angina attack usually causes little heart damage, episodes can lead to dangerous problems if left untreated, including: Abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias), which can lead to either syncope (fainting) or sudden cardiac death. Severe or lengthy episodes can trigger a heart attack. Permanent weakening of the heart muscle ( cardiomyopathy Other types of anginas include: Variant or Prinzmetal. Caused by a sudden spasm in one of the heart's blood vessels.

Georgetown University Medical Center, Washington, D.C. D espite a decline in mortality from cardiovascular disease, it remains the leading cause of death in the United States. Moreover, the morbidity and socioeconomic consequences of coronary heart disease will be accentuated in future years by the growing numbers of elderly persons in the U.S. population and the increased frequency of ischemic heart disease in the elderly. New diagnostic techniques allow earlier diagnosis of coronary artery disease, and noninvasive and invasive therapies provide an opportunity for earlier management of this disease. Chronic stable angina, a manifestation of coronary artery disease, can represent increased morbidity and mortality from the disease. It is generally accepted that coronary revascularization alleviates anginal symptoms and, in specific subgroups, improves mortality as well.

Advanced Search Ludwig's Angina in Children RICHARD W. HARTMANN, JR., M.D. Halifax Medical Center Daytona Beach, Florida Ludwig's angina is a potentially life-threatening, rapidly expanding, diffuse inflammation of the submandibular and sublingual spaces that occurs most often in young adults with dental infections. However, this disorder can develop in children, in whom it can cause serious airway compromise. Symptoms include severe neck pain and swelling, fever, malaise and dysphagia. Stridor suggests an impending airway crisis. Causative bacteria include many gram-negative and anaerobic organisms, streptococci and staphylococci. Initial treatment consists of high doses of penicillin G given intravenously, sometimes in combination with other drugs. Patients usually recover without complications. (Am Fam Physician 1999;60:109-12.) L udwig's angina was described initially by Wilhelm Frederick von Ludwig in 1836. Five patients had marked swelling of the neck that progressed to involve the tissues covering the muscles between the larynx and the floor of the mouth. Ludwig described indurated edema of the submandibular and sublingual areas with minimal throat inflammation but without lymph node involvement or suppuration. At that time, the condition was almost always fatal. Illustrative Cases Case 1 A 14-month-old girl was admitted to the hospital because of swelling below the chin that had increased during the previous two days. Fever developed on the day of admission, and she had reduced fluid intake and urine output.

This one process of furring up the arteries causes all of the above conditions and is therefore the western world's biggest killer. Raymond Gaftarnick found out some four years ago that his arteries were blocked by up to 50%. When he asked the Consultant how serious this was, he was told "Put it this way, I wouldn't want arteries like yours at your age." "The consultants comments scared me into doing something." said Raymond,"I gathered as much information about my condition as possible from various different sources. I used this information to good effect by adding a handful of products that can be bought in your local supermarket to my daily diet."

Newsletters Heart Attack Symptoms and Warning Signs Spanish version: Sintomas del ataque cardiaco/signos de alerta A blockage in the heart's arteries may reduce or completely cut off the blood supply to a portion of the heart. This can cause a blood clot to form and totally stop blood flow in a coronary artery, resulting in a heart attack (also called an acute myocardial infarction or MI). Irreversible injury to the heart muscle usually occurs if medical help is not received promptly. Unfortunately, it is common for people to dismiss heart attack symptoms. The American Heart Association and other medical experts say the body likely will send one or more of these warning signals of a heart attack: Uncomfortable pressure, fullness, squeezing or pain in the center of the chest lasting more than a few minutes. Pain spreading to the shoulders, neck or arms. The pain may be mild to intense. It may feel like pressure, tightness, burning, or heavy weight. It may be located in the chest, upper abdomen, neck, jaw, or inside the arms or shoulders. Chest discomfort with lightheadedness, fainting, sweating, nausea or shortness of breath.

MEDCEU COURSE MATERIAL Study this material before taking your quiz. By the end of this course, the learner will be able to: Identify the clinical symptoms of angina. Describe three types of angina. Identify the major diagnostic tests for angina. Identify the various medical therapies for angina including invasive therapeutic procedures. Overview: A typical patient with angina is 50-60 year-old male or a 65 to 75-year old woman. The Framingham Study, a long term study started in 1949 consisting of 5127 men and women who since have been examined at two-year intervals to determine factors relating to the development of heart disease, has determined that one in four men with angina can expect to have a myocardial infarction within 5 years; that for women the risk is about half that for men; and that the 8-year mortality rate in patients with angina who are over 55 is about 30%, of which about 44% of the deaths will be sudden. Angina is estimated to effect 7,120,000 people in the United States and 350,000 new cases of angina occur each year. The estimated crude prevalence of angina: for non-Hispanic white women is 4.1%, for men is 3.4%; for non-Hispanic black women 4.6%, and men 2.6%; for Mexican-American women 4.6% and men 3.4%.

Jun 6, 2004 Home Search HeartInfo MEDLINE Advertisement Heart Patient Guides Heart Animations Heart FAQ Ask the Doctor ... Newsletters Angina: A Patient Guide By Dr. Joseph Toscano What is angina? Angina is short for “angina pectoris,” which in Latin means “pain of the chest.” More specifically, angina is pain originating from the heart when it doesn’t get enough blood flow. How does angina occur? What causes it? At different times, the heart has a varying need for blood flow and the oxygen it carries. The heart receives this blood flow through its own set of blood vessels called the coronary arteries. Normal coronary arteries can open up and the heart can pump itself more blood during times of increased need. Unfortunately, over time, these arteries can develop internal blockages that slow the flow of blood through them. When these blockages reach a certain degree – usually when the internal size of the artery is narrowed by about 70% or more – it becomes impossible for the heart to get enough blood during the times it needs more. These times of increased need include: During exercise When performing physical work After eating When experiencing emotional stress or a sudden increase in blood pressure With the relatively decreased blood flow and oxygen, the heart muscle produces chemicals that cause the pain and other symptoms of angina. Stopping the exertion or work and placing nitroglycerine under the tongue helps restore the blood flow balance – symptoms are usually resolved in 5-10 minutes.

Update This publication contains information to help you understand and live a heart-healthy lifestyle. Angina (En español) Angina pectoris is a Latin phrase that means "strangling in the chest." Patients often say that angina is like a squeezing, suffocating, or burning feeling in their chest, but an episode of angina is not a heart attack. Unlike a heart attack, the heart muscle is not damaged forever, and the pain usually goes away with rest. What causes angina? Angina is the pain you feel when a diseased vessel in your heart (called a coronary artery) can no longer deliver enough blood to a part of your heart to meet its need for oxygen. The heart's lack of oxygen-rich blood is called ischemia. Angina usually happens when your heart has an extra need for oxygen-rich blood, like during exercise. Other triggers can be emotional stress, extreme cold or hot temperatures, heavy meals, alcohol, and smoking. Angina attacks in men usually happen after the age of 30 and are nearly always caused by coronary artery disease (CAD). For women, angina tends to happen later in life and can be caused by many different factors. Causes other than CAD include narrowing of the aortic valve in the heart (aortic stenosis), a low number of red blood cells in the bloodstream (anemia), or an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism).

Coronary Artery Disease and Angina September 2001 WHAT IS CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE? The heart is the human body's hardest working organ. Throughout life it continuously pumps blood enriched with oxygen and vital nutrients through a network of arteries to all parts of the body's tissues. In order to perform the arduous task of pumping blood to the rest of the body, the heart muscle itself needs a plentiful supply of oxygen-rich blood, which is provided through a network of coronary arteries. These arteries carry oxygen-rich blood to the heart's muscular walls (the myocardium ). If blood flow to the myocardium is interrupted, an injury known as an infarct occurs, or in other words, a myocardial infarction , more commonly known as a heart attack. The Process of Atherosclerosis Coronary artery disease is the end result of a complex process called atherosclerosis (commonly called "hardening of the arteries"). This causes blockage of arteries ( ischemia ) and prevents oxygen-rich blood from reaching the heart. There are many steps in the process leading to atherosclerosis and some are not fully understood. Increasingly, however, researchers are studying the interactions between cholesterol and processes known as
