Diagnostic Value of Ankle Brachial Index for Myocardial Ischemia in Asymptomatic Diabetic Patients and Comparison with Myocardial Perfusion Imaging
Objective: The ankle-brachial index (ABI) as a simple test which can detect peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Therefore in this study we try to evaluate the diagnostic value of ABI for silent myocardial ischemia in diabetic patients and compare the results with myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) results. Materials and Methods: All 149 diabetic patients in this study were categorized according...
متن کاملApplication of Anatomical and Functional Modalities in Detection of Silent Myocardial Ischemia in Asymptomatic Diabetic Patients- A Review Article
Cardiovascular disease (CAD) screening in asymptomatic patients with diabetes mellitus is controversial. An exercise stress test is a safe and effective initial testing for Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) screening. Treadmill stress test is not the best screening method for a particular patient who is not able to exercise, abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) or positive exercise treadmill test (ETT) ...
متن کاملThe myocardial perfusion scintigraphy in asymptomatic diabetic patients
Introduction: Asymptomatic diabetic patients are at increased risk of cardiovascular complications. Myocardial perfusion scan may be effective in risk evaluation in this population. Methods: 106 asymptomatic diabetic patients (age: min: 37, max: 82, mean: 57.73±8.88), including 56 females (52.8%) and 50 males (47.2%) were enrolled in the study. Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy was performed b...
متن کاملSilent Myocardial Ischemia in Asymptomatic Patients with Multiple Coronary Risk Factors
Myocardial ischemia which occurs in the absence of chest pain or its equivalents (silent myocardial ischemia) is common in patients with coronary artery disease. Silent myocardial ischemia may also be found in asymptomatic patients, particularly those with underlying risk factors. It is important for physicians to identify the existence of silent myocardial ischemia because it is predictive of ...
متن کاملMyocardial Ischemia/Infarction Significance of Silent Ischemia and Microalbuminuria in Predicting Coronary Events in Asymptomatic Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between future coronary heart disease (CHD) events and baseline silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) and microalbuminuria (MA) in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) free from known CHD. BACKGROUND Coronary heart disease is often asymptomatic in subjects with diabetes. There is limited information on the prognostic value of SMI a...
