Management of Stable Ischemic Heart Disease

摘要

Patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) require appropriate diagnosis, risk assessment, guideline-directed medical therapy, treatment, and follow up. The 2012 American College of Cardiology Foundation/American Heart Association guideline for the diagnosis and management of patients with SIHD assists nurse practitioners in the care of these patients. Knowledge of the treatments and the evidence supporting their use is essential to reduce morbidity and mortality in patients with SIHD.
