Advances in Chronic Coronary Syndrome and Coronary Heart Disease

Dear Colleagues,

Given the high number of ischemic heart disease cases and the growing incidence worldwide, it is important to be kept up to date with the newest recommendations regarding both diagnosis and treatment.

Apart from acute management, which is life-saving, it is important to acknowledge the long-term impact an ischemic cardiac event has on heart function and how the predisposition to a reoccurrence is increased. Periodic long-term supervision, together with a closely adhered and monitored treatment schedule, are paramount principles of patient management.

Additionally, patients are included in exercise-based cardiovascular rehabilitation programs, which have been shown to significantly reduce cardiac-related mortality and improve the quality of life of patients. These are being recommended by the newest guidelines as a required step to be undertaken.

The aim of this Special Issue is to gather the newest data and studies on the management of patients with chronic coronary syndromes. Therefore, we encourage to submit your articles on this topic.
