Development of a patient decision aid for people with refractory angina: protocol for a three-phase pilot study
BACKGROUND Refractory angina is a severe chronic disease, defined as angina which cannot be controlled by usual treatments for heart disease. This disease is frightening, debilitating, and difficult to manage. Many people suffering refractory have inadequate pain relief, continually revisit emergency departments for help, undergo repeated cardiac investigations, and struggle with obtaining appr...
متن کاملNonconventional therapeutic modalities in refractory angina pectoris
Abstract Despite sophisticated conventional medical treatment and the continued development and improvement of coronary revascularization modalities in recent years, a significant number of patients still suffer from refractory angina pectoris and cannot be successfully managed. Advances in therapeutic options have led to an increase in the average of life expectancy even in such ...
متن کاملSpinal cord stimulation for refractory angina in patients implanted with cardioverter defibrillators: five case reports.
Patients implanted with a cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) who are suffering from refractory angina pectoris could benefit from spinal cord stimulation (SCS) due to the well-documented pain relieving effect. However, the combined treatment remains controversial. The aim of the study is to report successful long-term treatment with SCS in five patients implanted with cardioverter defibrillators....
متن کاملIntranasal alfentanil for severe intractable angina in inoperable coronary artery disease.
Chronic refractory angina can lead to multiple acute hospital admissions. This can be due to patient and healthcare professional misconceptions regarding the meaning of the chest pain experienced. Symptom control, psychological support and education form an important part of the management of this condition. We describe a case study where intranasal alfentanil provided rapid relief of symptoms ...
متن کاملTransmyocardial laser revascularization remodels the intrinsic cardiac nervous system in a chronic setting.
BACKGROUND Prospective trials have demonstrated that transmyocardial laser revascularization (TMLR) imparts symptomatic relief to patients with refractory angina. Because peak clinical effectiveness of TMLR is usually delayed by several months, it has been proposed that ventricular denervation is one mechanism whereby TMLR imparts symptomatic relief. We have demonstrated that TMLR does not dene...
متن کاملThe expanding role of lipoprotein apheresis in the treatment of raised lipoprotein(a) in ischaemic heart disease and refractory angina
It is increasingly recognised that lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], an inherited, genetically-determined form of LDL-cholesterol, is an independent cardiovascular risk factor and predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Lp(a) is felt to increase cardiovascular risk via its pro-thrombotic effect and by enhancing intimal lipoprotein deposition. Lipoprotein apheresis is currently the most effective tr...
