Abstract
Care of the elderly patient with CHD requires an understanding of the prevalence of disease and its variability of presentation. Sound application of the diagnostic and therapeutic maneuvers developed for younger patients remains the predominant basis for the clinical approach to older individuals with heart disease. As more research is directed toward age-related issues in cardiac disease, the approach may be refined with more specific guidelines than are currently available.
