title: The comprehensive management of patients with angina pectoris.
abstract: The comprehensive approach to the patient with angina pectoris begins with a thorough history, physical examination, and noninvasive studies such as the exercise electrocardiogram. Classification of individual patients with coronary artery disease into clinical subsets is critical in allowing the physician to make rational choices of therapy. The medical, surgical, and angioplasty approaches to the disease are effective therapeutic modalities.
