Abstract

Chronic stable angina (CSA) is a symptomatic problem that is precipitated by ischemic heart disease. CSA is diagnosed when symptoms are present for at least 2 months without changes in severity, character, or triggering circumstances. This article is a summary of current treatment strategies aimed to prevent progression of atherosclerosis, and medication therapies to control angina symptoms and improve quality of life for the individual.
