[Sensitivity to pain in patients with stable stenocardia in relation to the degree of the coronary bed lesion and tolerance to physical exertion (algesimetric data)]

Abstract

Sensitivity to pain, assessed by mechanical algesimetry, was related to the degree of coronary arterial stenosis and physical stress tolerance in patients with stable angina: the higher the degree of stenosis and the lower the stress tolerance threshold, the lower the sensitivity values.
