Key result
Calcium antagonist drugs are reviewed for their mechanisms of action and role in the clinical management of patients with myocardial ischaemia.
This review discusses the mechanisms of myocardial ischemia and the clinical use of calcium antagonist drugs.
Consolidates calcium antagonist mechanisms and ischaemia management; leaves open comparative efficacy versus modern therapies in prospective trials.
This paper reviews the mechanisms believed to be responsible for myocardial ischaemia and the mode of action of calcium antagonist drugs. The clinical management of patients with myocardial ischaemia is discussed in the context of current knowledge about patho-physiology and drug action.
