Submaximal exercise testing early after myocardial infarction.
Sir, In the paper by Sullivan et al (1984; 52: 147-53), I was astonished to read that the ST segment elevation was the only exercise test variable predicting cardiac death in postmyocardial infarction patients. This phenomenon occurs with monotonous regularity in patients with even a minor degree of ST segment elevation in the resting 12 lead electrocardiogram soon after myocardial infarction. ...
متن کاملSubmaximal exercise testing early after myocardial infarction. Prognostic importance of exercise induced ST segment elevation.
Seventy four patients (66 men, eight women; mean age 54.3 years) underwent submaximal exercise testing 7-23 days (mean 10.7) after acute myocardial infarction. Follow up was a mean period of 11.3 months. When compared with patients with no exercise induced abnormality, ST segment elevation, ST shift (depression or elevation or both), ST depression, inability to complete five metabolic equivalen...
متن کاملExercise testing early after myocardial infarction.
A consecutive series of 179 survivors of acute myocardial infarction had a symptom-limited 12-lead electrocardiographic treadmill exercise test, coronary angiographic studies, and left ventriculograms six to eight weeks after infarction. The exercise-induced ST-segment responses were correlated with the presence of multivessel disease, the presence of advanced left ventricular wall motion abnor...

COMMUNICATIONS TO THE EDITOR 713 Saravolatz and co-workers2 documented the lower levels of erythromycin while treating patients with Legionnaires’ disease with oral erythromycin and one of their patients developed Legionnaires’ disease ( LD) while receiving oral erythromycin. Among the antibiotics, rifampin has been shown in vitro to be more active than erythromycin against the LD bacterium. On...
متن کاملSubmaximal exercise testing early after myocardial infarction. Difficulty of predicting coronary anatomy and left ventricular performance.
Impaired left ventricular function and extensive coronary artery disease are important determinants of prognosis after acute myocardial infarction. The ability of clinical and predischarge submaximal exercise test variables to predict multivessel coronary artery disease and impaired left ventricular function was assessed in 62 survivors of acute myocardial infarction. Abnormal exercise blood pr...
