If you have stable angina, should you have a procedure to open your arteries?

A new study called, ISCHEMIA (International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical and Invasive Approaches) looked at medical management vs. invasive treatment (angioplasty or bypass surgery) in patients with stable angina. The study hoped to answer the questions: Does invasive treatment prevent heart attack or other bad endpoints? And does it reduce symptoms? Dr. Stephen Ellis, Interventional Cardiologist at Cleveland Clinic explains the results and what they mean for you if you have stable angina vs. frequent symptoms from coronary artery disease.
