Abstract
Angina pectoris, which is chronic coronary diseases, have the atherosclerotic background and negatively affecting the quality of life of the patient, develops as a result of narrowing of coronary vessels and /or disruption of oxygen supply-need balance. This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between exertional dyspnea, pulmonary function, functional capacity, and quality of life, with angina pectoris which affects mortality and causes the economic burden. Thirty-five patients with angina pectoris (57.80±8.06 years, Canada Class 2,3) were included in the study. Demographic data and posture, comorbidity, smoking status, factors that increase dyspnea, angina levels were recorded. Functional capacity with a six-minute walk test(6MWT), respiratory functions with spirometry, quality of life with Short Form-36 were assessed. Dyspnea at activity/rest were recorded and with Modified Borg scale (MBS), Modified Medical Research Co...
