Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) - ANS diseased or damaged arteries that supply blood to the

Angina Pectoris - ANS the paroxysmal thoracic pain and choking feeling caused by decreased
oxygen flow to or lack of oxygen of the myocardium
Myocardial Infarction - ANS necrosis of heart muscle caused by a severe reduction or
cessation of blood flow through coronary arteries to the heart muscle
Stable Angina - ANS occurs when the patient develops symptoms of chest pain during activity
but goes away upon rest or taking medication such as nitroglycerin
Unstable Angina - ANS occurs when the patient has an increase in the severity and frequency
of chest pain that is not alleviated with rest or nitroglycerin
Treatment for Angina Pectoris - ANS combination drugs (ACE inhibitors and statins)
Interventions (agiography, bypass surgery, nitrates)
Nitroglycerin MOA, Usage, Storage, and Side Effects - ANS MOA: vasodilation of coronary
arteries to reduce pain
Usage: take at the onset of pain, call 911 if pain persists after 3 doses
Usage: keep in a cool, dr place away from sunlight
Side Effects: headache, dizziness, hypotension
Morphine Effects (For Angina Unrelieved by Nitro) - ANS reduces pain, anxiety, and workload
on the heart
