New cardiology guidelines call for an OMT trial and moving to a stent only if OMT fails to relieve the pain. This is especially important for women. Women who have repeated chest pain relieved by nitroglycerin are especially likely to have cholesterol deposits that do not block the artery but may still cause a heart attack or sudden death. What do you think the impact of the new guideline will be?
I believe the key is early detection and primary prevention including lifestyle optimization any means before followed with secondary OMTs by using intervention hospitalization as the last resort to reduce costs and save lives!
