Overview

The average mortality in patients with stable angina ranges from 1-3%. However, the prognosis varies widely depending on various factors such as: the duration and severity of symptoms, resting ECG abnormalities, abnormal left ventricular function and associated comorbidities.[1]

Risk stratification based on different factors

  • Risk stratification is based on anatomic factors:
  • Left ventricular function, which is the strongest predictor of long term survival
  • Extent of atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries (single vessel disease vs multivessel disease)
  • Evidence of a recent coronary plaque rupture (acute coronary syndrome)
  • Overall health and presence of other co-morbidities.
  • Risk stratification based on clinical factors: An initial scoring system was proposed by the Framingham Heart Study group to predict 10 year risk for patients with CAD based upon:
  • Risk stratification categories and appropriate management:
  • Patients at low risk have an annual mortality rate of less than 1% and can be managed medically.
  • Patients at intermediate risk have an annual mortality rate of 1%–3% and may require additional imaging studies such as exercise imaging for further risk assessment.
  • Patients at high risk have an annual mortality rate of more than 3% and require coronary angiography
