Angina

Angina Treatment in Bangalore

Angina is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscles. It is often a symptom of underlying coronary artery disease (CAD) and requires timely evaluation to prevent serious complications like heart attacks. At our cardiac center in Bangalore, we offer comprehensive care for patients experiencing angina — from diagnosis to personalized treatment plans.

"Chest pain should never be ignored — early evaluation and treatment of angina can prevent a future heart attack and save lives."

Dr. Basavaraj Utagi, a highly experienced cardiologist in Bangalore, specializes in diagnosing and managing all types of angina. Whether it’s exertional chest pain, breathlessness, or tightness in the chest, our clinic uses advanced tests like ECG, TMT, ECHO, and coronary angiography to assess the severity and guide targeted treatment.

Types of Angina We Treat

  • Stable Angina: Predictable chest discomfort triggered by physical activity or stress, often managed with medication and lifestyle changes.
  • Unstable Angina: Sudden or worsening chest pain that occurs at rest and may signal a high risk of heart attack — requires urgent evaluation.
  • Variant (Prinzmetal’s) Angina: Caused by temporary spasm of the coronary arteries; can occur at rest and often during the night.
  • Microvascular Angina: Chest pain due to dysfunction of small coronary arteries, often seen in women.

Diagnostic Services for Chest Pain

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG): Detects abnormal heart rhythms or signs of ischemia during pain episodes.
  • Treadmill Test (TMT): Evaluates heart function under physical stress to detect blockages.
  • 2D Echocardiogram: Checks heart muscle function and identifies wall motion abnormalities.
  • Coronary Angiography: Gold standard to visualize blockages in the heart arteries and plan interventions.

Angina Treatment Options

  • Medications: Includes nitrates, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, antiplatelets, and cholesterol-lowering drugs.
  • Lifestyle Modifications: Diet, exercise, smoking cessation, and stress reduction are key to managing angina long-term.
  • Angioplasty & Stenting: Recommended for significant blockages causing unstable or unresponsive angina.
  • Bypass Surgery (CABG): Advised in multi-vessel disease or high-risk patients for long-term symptom relief.
