心绞痛是冠状动脉供血不足,心肌急剧、暂时缺血缺氧所引起的阵发性心前区或胸骨后疼痛为主的临床症状。老年人一出现胸痛,大家首先想到的就是冠心病心绞痛的发作。其实,阵发性心前区或胸骨后疼痛并非是冠心病的“专利”。临床上,还有其他一些因素亦可引起类似于冠心病心绞痛的症状,医学上称之为非心源性胸痛。 Angina pectoris is the clinical symptoms of paroxysmal anterior or retro-sternal pain caused by insufficient blood supply to the coronary arteries, acute myocardial ischemia, and temporary ischemia and hypoxia. A chest pain in the elderly, we first think of is the onset of angina pectoris. In fact, paroxysmal atrial or sternal pain is not coronary heart disease “patent ”. Clinically, there are other factors that can cause symptoms similar to angina pectoris, medically referred to as non-cardiogenic chest pain.
