Chest pain that occurs with increased O2 demand, goes away with rest, is consistent with O2 demands and may need coronary intervention. In other words, the pattern of chest discomfort is consistent (thus, the term "stable") as far as how much physical exertion will trigger it. -Marla Penner.11:59, 2014 October 14 (CDT)


This code is used when the patient has a prior history of being treated for stable angina (chest pain). Do not put it in the cormorbs of a newly admitted MI or CABG with no prior history of angina (chest pain).

Don't use to code ISHD / Ischemic Heart Disease

If there is no documented history of having chronic chest pain, then do not use this code as a comorbid.

  • So just to clarify are you saying we no longer use this code CSA(chronic stable angina) to code ISHD(ischemic heart disease)/ CAD(coronary artery disease)/ or CHD(chronic heart disease )in our comorbids that we have been doing for many years and was in our books that we no longer use.And does this affect our data collecting ?
