anti-ischemic therapy

Anti-ischemic therapy refers to treatments aimed at preventing or reducing episodes of ischemia, which is when blood flow to a part of the body, often the heart, is insufficient. Common methods include medications like nitrates, beta-blockers, and calcium channel blockers, which help improve blood flow, relieve chest pain, and lower the heart's workload. Lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, are also important. The goal is to minimize symptoms, improve quality of life, and reduce the risk of heart-related complications.
