A study has found that while the severity of ischaemia correlates poorly with daily angina symptoms in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD), the development of coronary collateral circulation is associated with both the ischaemic burden and reduced intensity of ischaemic chest pain.¹ This may help explain the often-observed disconnect between stenosis severity and patient-reported… View more
