==[[Coronary heart disease risk factors|Risk Factors]]==


[[Angina pectoris|Angina]] that occurs regularly with activity, upon awakening, or at other predictable times is termed stable angina and is associated with high grade [[stenosis|narrowings]] of the [[heart]] [[artery|arteries]].  The symptoms of angina are often treated with nitrate preparations such as [[Glyceryl trinitrate (pharmacology)|nitroglycerin]], which come in short-acting and long-acting forms, and may be administered transdermally, sublingually or orally. Many other more effective treatments, especially of the underlying [[atheroma]]tous disease, have been developed.
==[[Coronary heart disease risk stratification|Screening and Risk Stratification]]==


Angina that changes in intensity, character or frequency is termed unstable. Unstable angina may precede myocardial infarction, and requires urgent medical attention. It is treated with morphine, oxygen, intravenous nitroglycerin, and aspirin. Interventional procedures such as [[angioplasty]] may be done.

A more controversial link is that between ''[[Chlamydophila pneumoniae]]'' infection and atherosclerosis.<ref name="Saikku-1992">{{cite journal | author=Saikku P, Leinonen M, Tenkanen L, Linnanmaki E, Ekman MR, Manninen V, Manttari M, Frick MH, Huttunen JK. | title=Chronic Chlamydia pneumoniae infection as a risk factor for coronary heart disease in the Helsinki Heart Study. | journal=Ann Intern Med | year=1992 | volume=116 | issue=4 | pages=273-8 | id=PMID 1733381}}</ref> While this intracellular organism has been demonstrated in atherosclerotic plaques, evidence is inconclusive as to whether it can be considered a causative factor.

==Treatment==


On September 29, 2008, the American Heart Association Prevention Committee of the Council on Cardiovascular Nursing, Council on Clinical Cardiology, Council on Epidemiology and Prevention, and Interdisciplinary Council on Quality of Care and Outcomes Research released a science advisory outlining their recommendations for screening, referral and treatment of [[depression]] in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Their recommendations include: 1. CHD patients should be routinely screened for depression; 2. CHD patients with positive screens should be evaluated by professionals skilled in dealing with depression; 3. CHD patients with depression should be monitored for both cardiovascular and [[mental health]] issues; 4. Care for CHD patients with depression should be coordinated between cardiovascular and [[mental health professional]]s.<ref name="Lichtman-2008">{{cite journal | author=Lichtman JH, Bigger JT Jr, Blumenthal JA, Frasure-Smith N, Kaufmann PG, Lespérance F, Mark DB, Sheps DS, Taylor CB, Froelicher ES; American Heart Association Prevention Committee of the Council on Cardiovascular Nursing; American Heart Association Council on Clinical Cardiology; American Heart Association Council on Epidemiology and Prevention; American Heart Association Interdisciplinary Council on Quality of Care and Outcomes Research; American Psychiatric Association | title=Depression and coronary heart disease: recommendations for screening, referral, and treatment: a science advisory from the American Heart Association Prevention Committee of the Council on Cardiovascular Nursing, Council on Clinical Cardiology, Council on Epidemiology and Prevention, and Interdisciplinary Council on Quality of Care and Outcomes Research: endorsed by the American Psychiatric Association | journal=Circulation | year=2008 | volume=118 | issue=17 | pages=1768-1775 | url=http://circ.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/118/17/1768?etoc | id=PMID 18824640}}</ref>
