Use of echocardiography in outpatients with chest pain and normal resting electrocardiograms referred to Mayo Clinic Rochester
2018, American Heart JournalCitation Excerpt :Only 21.9% (about 1 in 5) had a normal resting ECG. Multiple previous studies have shown that patients with stable chest pain and normal ECGs have normal left ventricular function almost all the time (>95%).4-6 Thus, the use of echocardiography to assess left ventricular function is not advised in these patients, unless there are other indications for echocardiography, as outlined in the class III recommendation in the ACCF/AHA Guidelines for the Evaluation of Patients with Stable Ischemic Heart Disease.2
Assessment of Cardiac Function
2018, Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance: A Companion to Braunwald’s Heart DiseaseApplication of exercise ECG stress test in the current high cost modern-era healthcare system
2017, Indian Heart JournalCitation Excerpt :On the other hand, slow recovery of heart rate is a mortality indicator independent of the patient’s exercise capacity37. In a study on 2275 patients referred for a technetium–99 m sestamibi stress test, Christian et al.49 demonstrated >95% positive predictive value for preserved resting LV function in patients with a normal baseline ECG, a finding similar to an older study50. Thus exercise ECG test alone may have been sufficient as the initial test in these subset of patients with normal baseline ECG for prognostication.
