Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Angina pectoris".

This medical PowerPoint presentation talks about Angina pectoris. Angina pectoris, commonly known as angina, is a type of chest pain that occurs when the heart muscle does not receive enough blood and oxygen due to a narrowed or blocked coronary artery. The coronary arteries are responsible for supplying oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle.

The most common cause of angina is coronary artery disease (CAD), which occurs when plaque builds up inside the coronary arteries, causing them to narrow and reducing blood flow to the heart muscle. Other causes of angina include coronary artery spasm, which is a temporary constriction of the coronary arteries, and microvascular angina, which is caused by small vessel disease.

The symptoms of angina can vary, but often include chest pain or discomfort that may be described as pressure, squeezing, or a feeling of tightness. Other symptoms may include pain or discomfort in the arms, neck, jaw, shoulder, or back, as well as shortness of breath, nausea, sweating, or dizziness.

Treatment for angina may include lifestyle changes such as quitting smoking, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly. Medications such as nitrates, beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, and aspirin may also be prescribed to manage symptoms and prevent further complications. In some cases, procedures such as angioplasty or coronary artery bypass surgery may be necessary to restore blood flow to the heart.

Slide 1-

1 Angina Pectoris Prepared by : Ansam Sharef Ahmad Aswad
Slide 2-

2 Angina Pectoris Definition : Angina pectoris is a clinical syndrome usually characterized by episodes of pain or pressure in the anterior chest . The cause is usually insufficient coronary blood flow which results in a decreased oxygen supply to meet an increased myocardial demand for oxygen in response to physical exertion or emotional stress.
Slide 3-

3 Pathophysiology Myocardial ischemia can result from: A reduction of coronary blood flow caused by fixed &\or dynamic epicardial artery stenosis. Abnormal constriction or deficient relaxation of coronary artery. Reduce O2-carrying capacity of the blood .
Slide 4-

Slide 5-

5 Factors are associated with typical angina pain Physical exertion (increase myocardial o2 demand). Exposure to cold ( cause elevation of BP increase oxygen demand ) Eating heavy meals Stress or any emotion-provoking situation
Slide 6-

6 Type of angina Stable angina: predictable & consistent pain that occurs on exertion and relieved by rest. Unstable angina or preinfarction or cresendo angina: symptoms occur more frequently and longer than stable angina. Intractable or refractory angina: sever incapacitating chest pain.
Slide 7-

7 Type of angina Variant angina or prinzmetals angina : pain at rest with reversable ST-segment elevation, caused by coronary artery vasospasm. Silent ischemia: objective evidence of ischemia (as ECG changes with a test), but pt report no symptom.
Slide 8-

8 Risk Factors for atherosclerosis Family history of premature coronary artery disease. DM, systemic HTN. Cigarette smoking. Hypercholesterolemia. Others as obesity, increase levels of lipoprotein,fibrinogen, s.triglycerides.
Slide 9-

9 Clinical manifestations May produce pain vary in severity from feeling of indigestion to chocking in retrosternal area , radiate to neck , jaw shoulders , inner aspects of upper arms Feeling of weakness or numbness in the arms , wrists and the hands Shortness of breath
Slide 10-

10 Clinical manifestations Pallor, Diaphoresis Dizziness or lightheadedness Nausea and vomiting
Slide 11-

11 Diagnostic findings Often made by evaluating the clinical manifestations of ischemia and the pts history 12-Lead ECG and blood laboratory values help in making diagnosis C-reactive protein ( CRP) is a marker for inflammation of vascular endothelium which caused by CAD
Slide 12-

Slide 13-

13 Diagnostic findings An elevated blood level of homocysteine ,an amino acid proposed as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease , but no studies supported the relationship between elevation of homocysteine and atherosclarosis
Slide 14-

14 Medical management for the pt with angina pectoris
Slide 15-

15 The objective is to decrease oxygen demand of myocardium and to increase oxygen supply 1.Nitroglycerin : administered to reduce myocardial oxygen consumption
Slide 16-

16 2.Beta-adrenergic blocking agents : ( propranolol ,metoprolol , atenolol) appear to reduce myocardial oxygen consumption, result in a reduction in heart rate, decreased BP , and reduced myocardial contractility .
Slide 17-

17 3-Calcium channel blocking agents : some decrease sinoatrial node automaticity and node conduction ,resulting in slower heart rate
Slide 18-

18 4- Antiplatelet and anticoagulent medications Aspirin: prevents platelet activation and reduces the incidence of MI and death with CAD Heparin : prevents the formation of new blood clots
Slide 19-

19 Oxygen administration : usually initiated at the onset of chest pain to increase the amount of oxygen delivered to the myocardium and to decrease the pain.
Slide 20-

20 Prevention Self care action plan changing habits. Stop smoking Increase level of exercise Cut down on fatty foods Eat more oats, which decrease cholesterol
Slide 21-

21 Lose wt if u DR. thinks you are overweight. Make sure your BP is not high by regular check Consider another method of contraceptive if you take pill
Slide 22-

22 Nsg process for pt with Angina pectoris Assessment The nurse gather information about the pts symptoms and activities . The nurse may ask about the period that angina last , and if any medication relieve the angina.
Slide 23-

23 Diagnosis Ineffective myocardial tissue perfusion secondary to CAD as evidence by chest pain or equivalent symptoms Anxiety related to fear of death
Slide 24-

24 Diagnosis Noncompliance , ineffective management of therapeutic regimen related to failure to accept necessary lifestyle changes
Slide 25-

25 Planning and goals The major goal include immediate treatment when angina occur , preventing of angina , reduction of anxiety and absence of complications
Slide 26-

26 NSG interventions Treating angina : when pt experiences angina the nurse should direct pt to stop activities and sit or rest in bed in semi-fowler position Reducing anxiety : The nurse should explore and implicate that the diagnosis has for the pt providing information about the illness , treatment and methods of preventing its progression
Slide 27-

27 Preventing pain : when the pt has pain with minimal activity , the nurse alternates the pts activities with rest periods
Slide 28-

28 Evaluation expected pts outcomes may include Reports that pain is relieved promptly Reports decreased anxiety
Slide 29-

29 Understands ways to avoid complications and demonstrates freedom from complications Adheres to self-care program
