A patient arrives in the Emergency Department with severe chest pain. What is the best explanation ...

A patient arrives in the Emergency Department with severe chest pain. What is the best explanation by the pharmacist to differentiate angina from a myocardial infarction?

1.   "Angina usually goes away with rest, and is rarely fatal, but a myocardial infarction requires immediate treatment, and can be life-threatening."
2.   "There is no way to tell the difference between the two. You will be treated for a myocardial infarction."
3.   "Both are caused by a clot blocking the coronary arteries. Angina occurs if a small vessel is blocked, and a myocardial infarction occurs if a large vessel is blocked."
4.   "Angina does not cause severe chest pain, but a myocardial infarction always causes severe chest pain."
