It usually occurs on exertion and is relieved by rest. Angina generally is a symptom of coronary artery disease . In most severe cases, it may occur with minimal effort or at rest. Description Angina pectoris is a common manifestation of coronary artery disease. The pain is caused by reduced blood flow to a segment of heart muscle (myocardial ischemia). It usually lasts for only a few minutes, and an attack is usually quickly relieved by rest or drugs (such as nitroglycerin). Also, it is possible to have myocardial ischemia without experiencing angina.

http://www.umm.edu/cardiac/anginap.htm

Extractions: Angina pectoris is recurring chest pain or discomfort that happens when some part of the heart does not receive enough blood. It is a common symptom of coronary heart disease (CHD), which occurs when vessels that carry blood to the heart become narrowed and blocked due to atherosclerosis. Facts about angina pectoris: It is a symptom of a condition called myocardial ischemia which occurs when the heart muscle (myocardium) does not get as much blood as it needs for a given level of work. (Insufficient blood supply is called ischemia.) Angina feels like a pressing or squeezing pain, usually in the chest under the breast bone, but sometimes in the shoulders, arms, neck, jaws, or back. Symptoms usually begin with physical exertion, although other triggers include emotional stress, extreme cold or heat, heavy meals, alcohol, and cigarette smoking. Pain is usually relieved within a few minutes by resting or by taking prescribed angina medicine.

STICHWORT Herzinfarkt Ein Herzinfarkt macht sich durch die gleichen Symptome wie die Angina Pectoris bemerkbar, allerdings halten die Anzeichen f¼r einen akuten Anfall deutlich l¤nger an. Meistens sitzen die Schmerzen im Brustkorb hinter dem mittleren oder dem unteren Bereich des Brustbeins. Von dort aus k¶nnen sie allerdings auch auf die Innenseiten von Arm und Hand ausstrahlen und Schmerzen entsprechend auf der rechten wie auf der linken K¶rperseite hervorrufen. Typische Anzeichen f¼r eine Erkrankung sind auch Schmerzen im Unterkiefer sowie Ausstrahlungen in den R¼cken- und Bauchbereich. In diesen besonderen F¤llen ist besondere Vorsicht geboten, da die Betroffenen die Schmerzursache nicht auf eine Funktionsst¶rung ihres Herzen zur¼ckf¼hren und vielfach keinen Arzt konsultieren.

Extractions: What is Angina pectoris? What is Angina pectoris? Most of us know it means chest pain. Read on to learn more about angina. What exactly is angina? Is it chest pain? Well, it is that and more. Let's find out exactly what angina is, it causes, symptoms, treatments and more. Angina, or angina pectoris, its official name, is a disease of the heart that causes chest pain. The chest pain in angina is caused by a decreased flow of blood from the coronary arteries (which are the heart's arteries), and an oxygen deficiency (lack of oxygen) to the heart. The heart is a muscle, and like any muscle, requires oxygen in order to function. When any muscle has a lack of oxygen, then that muscle will begin to hurt, cramp and/or ache. bodyOffer(31329) Angina Pectoris disease is usually a result of atherosclerosis. However it should be known that certain other conditions can predispose a person to angina as well. These include conditions that can be hereditary, such as diabetes and hypertension. They can also include aquired conditions and illnesses such as syphilis and rheumatic heart disease. Things such as aging, smoking, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and diabetes can cause the atherosclerosis to develop over time. The atherosclerosis then leads to angina, or chest pain. So, in effect, one condition effects the other, and so on. Some studies have found that angina occurs mostly when the work load on the heart is quite high. So, when the person exercises, works hard, is under stress, or even when eating a heavy meal, the angina can occur. Do not confuse angina with a heart attack. Angina is different from a heart attack, because with angina, no permanent damage is done to the heart muscle. Angina can be a sign of serious heart problems, so do not ignore it. Do not be stubborn or just assume that you have indigestion. Like the old saying goes, it is better to be safe than sorry.

Extractions: Angina Also indexed as: Angina pectoris, Breast Pain, Stenocardia Chest pain due to reduced blood flow to the heart is known as angina or angina pectoris. Hardening of the coronary arteries (atherosclerosis) that feed the heart is usually the underlying problem; it is important for treatment and prevention of angina (and for overall health) to learn more about atherosclerosis . Coronary artery spasms may also cause angina. There are three main types of angina. The first is called stable angina. This type of chest pain comes on during exercise and is both common and predictable. Stable angina is most often associated with atherosclerosis. A second type, called variant angina, can occur at rest or during exercise. This type is primarily due to sudden coronary artery spasm, though atherosclerosis may also be a component. The third, most severe type is called unstable angina. This angina occurs with no predictability and can quickly lead to a heart attack . Anyone with significant, new chest pain or a worsening of previously mild angina must seek medical care immediately.

En eller flere av disse årene har blitt for trange. Dette fører til at hjertet ikke får oksygenet det skal ha. Når behovet for oksygen i hjertemuskelen øker, når hjertet må slå fortere eller hardere når vi anstrenger oss, kommer det ikke nok blod gjennom de trange årene. Det gjør vondt, og smerteanfallet kalles hjertekrampe. Det er litt flere menn enn kvinner som har hjertekrampe, og sykdommen starter vanligvis tidligere hos menn (50-60 årsalderen) enn hos kvinner (etter 65 år).

Av og til kan forsnevringen på åreveggen slå sprekker. Det danner seg sår og arrvev og blodplater kommer ilende til for å dekke over såret. Det skjer en endring i levringsprosessen i blodet, og det dannes en blodpropp. I forbindelse med en slik hendelse vil ofte anginasymptomene forverres. Det oppstår en ustabil situasjon som kan bli forløpet til et hjerteinfarkt. Ved en ustabil Angina Pectoris vil smerter i brystet oppstå i hvile/ro; oftere om natten eller ved mindre anstrengelser enn tidligere. Som oftest vil en da føle seg slappere og mindre opplagt enn før. Disse signaler må tas alvorlig, og lege eller sykehus skal kontaktes. Plutselige smerter i brystet som varer utover en halvtime, og som ikke bedres av nitroglycerin, kan være tegn på hjerteinfarkt. Kontakt straks lege for vurdering av sykehusinnleggelse. For enkelte vil Angina Pectoris være en mer eller mindre stabil sykdom uten vesentlige komplikasjoner eller brå forandringer. Andre igjen vil i løpet av sykdommen oppleve å få et hjerteinfarkt. For noen kan infarktet være første kontakt med hjerte- og karsykdom. Noen vil etter infarktet ikke ha symptomer, mens andre kan få Angina Pectoris eller hjertesvikt.

http://www.rcpg.com/angina.shtml

Extractions: How the Heart Works Facts on Heart Disease Healthy Heart Lifestyle Angina Pectoris Angina Pectoris is the medical term for chest pain experienced by patients with heart disease. The coronary arteries supply the heart its blood flow, and thus, its supply of oxygen and nutrients. When there is a blockage in one or more of the coronary arteries, the blood supply to the heart is not adequate and angina occurs. Angina has many forms and is different for each person. It usually occurs as temporary episodes of discomfort which may vary in severity. Angina may be described as a pressure across the chest and can extend to the arms, neck or back. The discomfort may also be described as a dull pressure or a squeezing, heavy choking, tight, burning or full sensation. At times, it may feel like indigestion or a tightness in the neck or jaw. Some people may only experience shortness of breath and not any other discomfort. Factors which may cause angina symptoms to occur include physical exertion, emotional stress, exposure to cold, digestion and sexual activity. See American Heart Association for more information on Angina Pectoris.
Angina Pectoris (Stable Or Unstable)
angina pectoris is a type of temporary chest pain, pressure or discomfort. angina pectoris is a type of temporary chest pain, pressure or discomfort.
http://www.heartcenteronline.com/Angina.html

Extractions: Angina Angina (angina pectoris) is a type of temporary chest pain , pressure or discomfort. With stable angina, the attacks happen only when the heart needs extra oxygen, like when a person climbs a long flight of stairs or jogs across the street. With unstable angina, attacks may occur even when a person is at rest. Angina is not a disease but a symptom of coronary artery disease (CAD) a chronic disease in which there is a "hardening" ( atherosclerosis ) of the arteries on the surface of the heart. Drugs used to treat angina are sometime called antianginal medications (anti-anginal agents). CAD often leads to cardiac ischemia a condition in which not enough oxygen-rich blood is getting to the heart, often because fatty plaque has clogged up the blood vessels. Cardiac ischemia causes the angina symptom because when the heart is not getting enough oxygen, chest pain (angina) serves as a distress signal. Short periods of ischemia cause little long-term damage to the heart. However, the condition usually worsens if untreated and can lead to a heart attack, abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias), syncope (fainting) or sudden cardiac death. The main experience that people report when they have angina is chest pain, pressure or a vague chest discomfort. In fact, the term "angina pectoris" means "a choking sensation of the chest." An angina attack may feel like a squeezing vise or crushing pressure deep in the chest behind the breastbone (sternum), and may also be felt in the shoulders, arms, back, neck or jaw. People experiencing angina may also feel light-headed (dizziness) and feel an abnormally fast or irregular heartbeat (palpitations).
