Coming soonAn acute episode of anginal pain is a transient cardiovascular symptom characterized by sudden chest discomfort, pressure, squeezing, or heaviness resulting from acute myocardial ischemia.
It affects adults with compromised coronary circulation, most commonly secondary to obstructive coronary artery disease, microvascular dysfunction, or coronary vasospasm.
The underlying pathophysiology involves a temporary supply-demand mismatch where myocardial oxygen consumption exceeds coronary arterial blood flow, typically triggered by physical exertion or emotional stress.
Defining clinical features include retrosternal pain that frequently radiates to the jaw, neck, shoulder, or left arm, often resolving within minutes of rest or acute therapeutic vasodilation.
