[Physician's attitude to acute non-cardiac thoracic pain].
Acute non-cardiac chest pain is very commonly reported in ambulatory care or hospitalized patients. Most cases arise from non-organic causes and should be treated by the primary care physician after having reasonably excluded curable or potentially life-threatening diseases. This new approach is designed to save costly and unnecessary investigations and more effectively assist patients suffering from acute non-cardiac chest pain due to anxiety disorders.
