Abstract: . . . perception improved from 38.89 16.61 to 49.31 21.83 (p=0.004), the domain `physical limitation from 29.89 15.10 to 40.97 22.63 (p=0.001) and `anginal frequency from 41.67 24.08 to 55.00 23.03 (p=0.005). In addition, nitroglycerin consumption was reduced from 7.85 8.49 to 1.98 2.19 (p=0.001). Conclusion: The pathophysiology of angina pectoris in conjunction with normal coronary arteries has not yet been clarified. Therefore, therapeutic goals . . . . . . neurostimulation. The improvement in complaints following neurostimulation seems to be built on 2 pillars: reduction of pain and anginal frequency together with improvement of both exercise tolerance and all day life activities. Therefore, neurostimulation techniques should be of widespread value in treatment of angina refractory to medication. Table.
