The additive prognostic value of wall motion abnormalities and coronary flow reserve during dipyridamole stress echo.
AIMS The aim of the study was to evaluate the prognostic value of Doppler echocardiographic-derived coronary flow reserve (CFR) over regional wall motion in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing dipyridamole echocardiography test (DET). METHODS AND RESULTS In a prospective, multicentre, observational study, we evaluated 1145 patients (702 males; 64 +/- 11 y...
متن کاملAdditional prognostic value of coronary flow reserve in diabetic and nondiabetic patients with negative dipyridamole stress echocardiography by wall motion criteria.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this prospective, multicenter, observational study was to compare the prognostic value of Doppler echocardiographic-derived coronary flow reserve (CFR) in diabetic and nondiabetic patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease and negative dipyridamole stress echocardiography. BACKGROUND The prognostic value of CFR in diabetic patients with negative stress echo...
متن کاملPrognostic value of echocardiography-derived coronary flow reserve.
To the Editor: We read with great interest the paper by Nakanishi et al entitled “Impaired coronary flow reserve as a marker of microvascular dysfunction to predict long-term cardiovascular outcomes, acute coronary syndrome and the development of heart failure”.1 The authors demonstrate that coronary flow reserve (CFR) is a significant and independent determinant of long-term cardiovascular eve...
متن کاملPrognostic value of calcium score and coronary flow velocity reserve in asymptomatic diabetic patients
BACKGROUND The risk stratification of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major objective for the clinicians, and it can be achieved by coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) or with coronary artery calcium score (CS). CS evaluates underlying coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden and CFVR estimates both presence of coronary artery stenosis and microvascular function. Consequently, CFVR ma...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of the location of wall motion abnormalities during exercise echocardiography.
OBJECTIVES Our aim was to determine whether location of wall motion abnormalities (WMAs) during exercise echocardiography provides independent prognostic value. BACKGROUND The effect of the location of WMAs during stress echocardiography on prognostic outcome is unknown. METHODS We studied 4,347 patients (mean age, 61 +/- 12 years; 2,230 men) with known or suspected coronary artery disease ...
