Prognostic importance of dipyridamole-echocardiography test in coronary artery disease.
We studied the value of dipyridamole-echocardiography test in comparison with clinical, resting electrocardiogram and echocardiogram variables in predicting cardiac events occurring in 539 consecutive patients referred for dipyridamole-echocardiography test from 1984 to 1987. There were 118 cardiac events: 11 cardiac deaths, 12 nonfatal myocardial infarctions, and 95 coronary revascularization ...
متن کاملDiagnostic and Prognostic Value of Dipyridamole Echocardiography
Background Before any new diagnostic test is accepted in clinical practice, such a test should be compared with established diagnostic tools in an appropriately large series of patients encompassing the complete spectrum of challenges to which the test is exposed. The aim of the present study was to assess the relative diagnostic and prognostic accuracies of high-dose dipyridamole echocardiogra...
متن کاملPrognostic value of dipyridamole stress echocardiography in women.
BACKGROUND Stress echocardiography is an important diagnostic and prognostic tool in ischemic heart disease. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the role of dipyridamole stress echocardiography (DSE) in the investigation of myocardial ischemia in women and its ability to predict combined events (cardiovascular death, acute myocardial infarction [AMI], unstable angina, coronary artery bypass grafting [surge...
متن کاملLong-term prognostic value of dipyridamole stress myocardial contrast echocardiography.
AIMS The aim of this prospective study was to determine long-term prognostic value of myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) combined with high-dose dipyridamole stress echocardiography (DSE) in patients undergoing diagnostic work-up for stable coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS A total of 202 consecutive patients (67% males, age 57±8 years) with suspected or known stable CAD schedule...
متن کاملUsefulness of high-dose dipyridamole echocardiography test in coronary angioplasty.
Seventy-four consecutive patients with angina undergoing single-lesion percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty were evaluated with high-dose (up to 0.84 mg/kg during 10 minutes) dipyridamole echocardiography test (DET) before angioplasty and when possible, afterward. Angioplasty was clinically or angiographically successful in 63 patients and unsuccessful in 11. Before the procedure, 69 ...
