What year did the author observe the case related to shoulder pain that turned out to be ischaemic cardiac pain? Thanks for sharing this case study—it’s a great reminder of how critical thorough screening can be. The infographic summary is really helpful for seeing how shoulder discomfort might signal something more serious. In your experience, have you noticed any early “red flag” signs that clinicians often miss—like particular movement patterns or patient history details—that could prompt earlier cardiac investigation?
