The most common cause of angina is coronary artery disease. Angina pectoris is the medical term for this type of chest pain. Stable angina is less serious than unstable angina, but it can be very painful or uncomfortable. There are many risk factors for coronary artery disease.
The term stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) often is used synonymously with chronic coronary artery disease (CAD) and encompasses a variety of conditions that result in a mismatch between myocardial oxygen supply and demand.
Often a person with angina has pain that sets in after a predictable amount of exertion. This is stable angina. Unstable angina happens when the angina worsens.
Atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with angina pectoris with documented spasm. I25. 111 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) refers to patients with known or suspected SIHD who have no recent or acute changes in their symptomatic status, suggesting no active thrombotic process is underway.
Heart disease can be stable or unstable. Stable heart disease usually causes symptoms only when you exercise or feel stressed. If you rest or take medicine, the symptoms usually stop soon afterward. With unstable heart disease, symptoms can happen anytime, even when you're resting.
Stable angina occurs predictably. It happens when you exert yourself physically or feel considerable stress. Stable angina doesn't typically change in frequency and it doesn't worsen over time. Unstable angina is chest pain that occurs at rest or with exertion or stress.
Stable and unstable angina Stable angina is when you get angina symptoms during moderate physical activity or when you are pushing yourself physically. These symptoms go away with rest and/or medication. Unstable angina is when you get angina symptoms while doing very little or resting.
Angina pectoris, a clinical syndrome characterized by discomfort typically located in the chest, neck, or left arm, is one of several possible clinical manifestations of coronary heart disease. Chronic stable angina pectoris is a common manifestation of CAD.
Diagnosis. To diagnose stable angina, doctors will first do a physical exam and ask about any medical history the person has or underlying conditions. They may take a person's blood pressure and will often order an electrocardiogram (ECG) to look at the heart's functioning.
Code I25* is the diagnosis code used for Chronic Ischemic Heart Disease, also known as Coronary artery disease (CAD). It is a is a group of diseases that includes: stable angina, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, and sudden coronary death.

Patients with known stable IHD should undergo noninvasive testing to assess their risk for future cardiac events unless there are contraindications to testing. The initial test can be a functional test, such as exercise ECG or a stress imaging test, or a structural test, such as CT angiography.

Coronary angioplasty and stent placement. A tiny balloon is inflated to help widen the blocked artery and improve blood flow. A small wire mesh tube (stent) may be placed in the artery during angioplasty. The stent helps keep the artery open. It lowers the risk of the artery narrowing again.
