Abstract

The 2023 American Heart Association (AHA)/American College of Cardiology (ACC) Multisociety Guideline for the Management of Patients with Chronic Coronary Disease presents important updates to the care of patients with chronic coronary disease (1). The recommendations of these guidelines inform the care for patients with (1) asymptomatic coronary artery disease, (2) stable angina or equivalent symptoms (e.g., dyspnea upon exertion), (3) symptomatic nonobstructive coronary disease including coronary microvascular dysfunction and vasospasm, and (4) left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction with known coronary artery disease. In this review, we aim to demonstrate key recommendations in the 2023 guideline using the following four hypothetical cases.
