NO is known to decrease coronary vascular resistance thereby improving myocardial contractility and metabolic function.

Decrease in contractility will reduce stroke volume. Therefore, heart rate will increase to pump more blood to sustain the blood supply to the body. This leads to the increase in oxygen demand of myocardium. At the same time, increase in heart rate will decrease coronary perfusion due to shorter diastole. ]]> 2022-03-24 03:26:47 UTC https://padlet.com/drmona2022/r0sy3wgm0yjccrrm/wish/2111030881 https://padlet.com/drmona2022/r0sy3wgm0yjccrrm/wish/2111034228 The patient describes the chest pain as squeezing sensation during exercise which is caused by occlusion or narrowing of coronary arteries (angina attack)]]> 2022-03-24 03:29:14 UTC https://padlet.com/drmona2022/r0sy3wgm0yjccrrm/wish/2111034228 00000034539 https://padlet.com/drmona2022/r0sy3wgm0yjccrrm/wish/2111039039 Increase coronary blood flow via vasodilation of coronary vasculature?
