Adenosine provokes diastolic dysfunction in microvascular angina.
Adenosine stress echocardiography was performed in nine patients (58 (+/-3) years, eight women) with documented microvascular angina. Global ventricular function was assessed by Tc(99m) blood pool imaging and Doppler, whereas longitudinal ventricular function was assessed by simultaneous tissue Doppler echocardiography of the lateral mitral annulus. Adenosine was infused incrementally to onset ...
متن کاملCoronary microvascular dysfunction, microvascular angina, and treatment strategies.
Angina without coronary artery disease (CAD) has substantial morbidity and is present in 10% to 30% of patients undergoing angiography. Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is present in 50% to 65% of these patients. The optimal treatment of this cohort is undefined. We performed a systematic review to evaluate treatment strategies for objectively-defined CMD in the absence of CAD. We inclu...
متن کاملCoronary microvascular dysfunction in patients with microvascular angina: analysis by TIMI frame count.
We have previously reported that angina pectoris persists in patients with coronary microvascular spasm (MVS) even on calcium channel blockers. Because measurement of myocardial lactate production in the coronary sinus is necessary to diagnose MVS, a more feasible diagnostic method needs to be developed. In this study, we examined the diagnostic significance of Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarc...
متن کاملMicrovascular angina: angina that predominantly affects women
In women receiving evaluation for suspected ischemic symptoms, a "normal" diagnosis is five times more common than it is in men. These women are often labeled as having cardiac syndrome X, also known as microvascular angina (MVA). MVA is defined as angina pectoris caused by abnormalities of the small coronary arteries, and is characterized by effort chest pain and evidence of myocardial ischemi...
