A patient experiences a sudden onset of chest pain described as “crushing” and radiating to the left arm. This pain is caused by myocardial ischemia, which is a result of:

  • Decreased oxygen demand by the heart.
  • Inadequate oxygen supply to the myocardium.
  • Increased venous return to the heart.
  • Pulmonary hypertension.
