Beschreibungen/Notizen

• [...]we further explored whether the findings obtained by Bourque et al. Of them, new or worsening wall motion abnormalities developed in 301 (15%) patients, 187 (9.3%) patients had ischemia involving at least 3 myocardial segments, and 138 (6.9%) patients underwent coronary revascularization. [...]these results do not suggest that a high exercise workload may confidently rule out myocardial ischemia or significant coronary artery disease in our patients.
