Coronary Artery Disease Nursing Care Plans: Acute Pain

Coronary Artery Disease Nursing Care Plans

Acute Pain Coronary artery disease (CAD) is caused by a narrowing of the arteries that supply the heart muscle with blood. When the arteries narrow, blood flow is reduced. The reduced blood flow causes the heart muscle to receive less oxygen than it needs to function properly. When ischemia occurs patients typically develop angina or chest pain originating from the heart. It has been described as chest pain or discomfort that has a squeezing or pressure-like quality, usually felt behind the breastbone (sternum), but sometimes felt in the shoulders, arms, neck, jaws, or back.
