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.
-
