The extent of ischemia identified on stress cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) was a strong predictor of the composite ...

As a second test after the exercise ECG, CT angiography may improve risk stratification for people with suspected stable angina, according to a post hoc analysis of the SCOT-HEART trial.

c. For patients with an interpretable ECG and who are able to exercise, a standard exercise test should be the first choice test for diagnosis of IHD, especially if the likelihood is intermediate ...

A 40-year-old gout drug has been shown to have anti-ischemic properties and could be an alternative new treatment for the symptoms of chronic stable angina, say British researchers.

We conclude that in a group of stable, treated angina patients, ECG is an unreliable method of identifying LVH. As LVH is very common in this patient population, screening by means of echo might ...

There are three kinds of ACS events. One, unstable angina, causes the least damage. The heart muscle is starved for blood at rest, but it is not dying. The other two types are worse and damage or k… ...

In the UK, the exercise electrocardiogram (ECG) is the most common initial test for the evaluation of stable chest pain and has been used widely for almost half a century. However, recent NICE ...

For patients referred for evaluation of stable angina, a tiered protocol progressing from calcium scans to CT angiography (CTA) to CT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) appears to be a viable ...

In fact, during exacerbations, patients primarily have ST-segment elevation on 12-lead electrocardiography (ECG). ... similar to that of stable exertional angina.

Exercise electrocardiographic (ECG) stress tests appeared to reliably indicate that some patients with angina with nonobstructive coronary arteries (ANOCA) actually had coronary microvascular ...

There are three kinds of ACS events. One, unstable angina, causes the least damage. The heart muscle is starved for blood at rest, but it is not dying. The other two types are worse and damage or k… ...
