Abstract
Cardiac syndrome X is characterized by typical anginal symptoms and a positive exercise stress test in patients with normal coronary arteries confirmed by angiography. It is a relatively common condition seen by nurses working with patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. This article briefly describes the condition, pathophysiology, and treatment options. Nursing interventions in the care of these patients are also discussed.
