Abstract

Angina pectoris is the presenting complaint in a significant number of clients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and indicates potentially lethal sequelae. This article reviews the definition and etiology of stable angina pectoris, including reversible risk factors often associated with the disease. It also describes trends in behavioral and pharmacological approaches to management and outlines a management plan for the nurse practitioner who, after the initial medical workup, can assume the role of primary health care provider in long term follow-up of stable angina pectoris clients.
