Exercise Induced Non-Sustained Ventricular Tachycardia and Indication for Invasive Management
نویسندگان
چکیده
Diagnostic stress echo testing is commonly performed in patients with known or suspected cardiovascular disease. There has been considerable debate in management of exercise induced non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT). In this case report, we present our experience with a case of exercise induced NSVT, and subsequent angiographically significant left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery lesion.

Ventricular tachycardia during exercise testing as a predictor of sudden death in patients with chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy and ventricular arrhythmias.
OBJECTIVE To verify the prognostic value of exercise induced ventricular arrhythmias in patients with chagasic cardiomyopathy. METHODS 69 consecutive patients (37 male, 32 female; age range 21-67 years) with chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy and ventricular arrhythmias (more than 10 ventricular premature complexes per hour) were evaluated during treadmill exercise testing, using the Bruce proto...

A transthoracic echocardiogram showed marked hypertrophy of the left ventricular apex (fig 1). There was no septal hypertrophy, systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve, or evidence of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. A 24 hour ECG detected asymptomatic episodes of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia. On treadmill exercise testing he managed 10 minutes of the Bruce protocol wit...
