| description | Chest pain from respiratory causes is a common complaint and may indicate the presence of a serious or even life-threatening pathologic condition.

Rapid recognition with appropriate understanding of the anatomy and physiology of chest pain from respiratory causes is vital to ensure timely and appropriate therapy. © 2010 Elsevier Inc. |
