ST elevation occurring during stress testing
A case is presented of significant reversible ST elevation occurring during treadmill testing, and the coronary anatomy and subsequent course are described, indicating that ischemia is a potential cause of this electrocardiographic finding.
متن کامل[ST segment elevation during dipyridamole stress testing in a patient without coronary lesions].
We describe a patient who presented transient ST-segment elevation and typical chest pain during an ischemia test with dipyridamole and technetium-tetrofosmin. Chest pain and electrical alterations disappeared promptly with sublingual nitroglycerin. Coronary angiography showed no epicardial lesions, and coronary vasospasm was suspected. We discuss possible explanations for this complication.
متن کاملST elevation in lead aVR during exercise testing should not be ignored
Background: There is increased awareness of the need for cardiovascular (CVS) risk monitoring in the Northern Ireland population in general, and amongst rheumatoid arthritis and SLE patients in particular, who have a higher incidence of cardiovascular disease. No clear guidelines exist for cardiovascular risk monitoring in osteoporosis, and the prevalence and associations of known CVS risk fact...
متن کاملBroken heart during treadmill exercise testing: an unusual cause of ST-segment elevation.
Treadmill exercise testing is a commonly used diagnostic test for the assessment of chest discomfort and exercise-induced arrhythmias. The presence of ST-segment elevation during exercise is considered a marker of severe ischaemia, usually secondary to a critical lesion in a proximal coronary artery. We present a novel cause of ST-segment elevation during exercise testing: "broken heart syndrom...
متن کاملAcute ST segment elevation during exercise stress echocardiography due to severe pulmonary hypertension
A 51-year-old female undergoing an outpatient stress echocardiogram to evaluate atypical chest pain developed acute ST elevation in the anterior precordial leads on electrocardiogram following exercise. Echocardiography revealed a severe rise in pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) with marked right ventricular (RV) enlargement and interventricular septum flattening. Subsequently, cardiac ...
