Abstract:
Significant progress has been made in recent years in unraveling the dynamic mechanisms involved in the production of unstable angina. This knowledge, and advances in medical and interventional therapy allow the formulation of treatment strategies aimed at specific pathogenic mechanisms and promise to reduce mortality and morbidity. This review covers the diagnosis, pathogenesis, risk stratification, and therapy of unstable angina.
