A member asked:
What is stress-induced ischemia? how is it treated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stress ischemia: Under the conditions of physical or emotional stress the more rapid heart rate and higher blood pressure can produce myocardial ischemia. It is treated with nitrates and beta blockers to try and reorder supply and demand. Stress induced peripheral ischemia is treated with peripheral vasodilator medications.
