Emedinews:Makesure:A patient with angina and abnormal endothelial functions was put on atenolol.


Situation: A patient with angina and abnormal endothelial functions was put on atenolol.
Reaction: Oh my God! Why you did not consider nebivolol?
Lesson: Make sure that nebivolol is used as the beta-blocker of choice in patients with proven endothelial dysfunction (Kardiologiia 2004;44(2):15–18).
