Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence and pharmacological treatment of left‐ventricular dysfunction in patients undergoing vascular surgery

TL;DR: This study evaluated the prevalence of left‐ventricular (LV) dysfunction in vascular surgery patients and pharmacological treatment, according to ESC guidelines, and found that left-ventricular dysfunction is more common in patients undergoing vascular surgery than in the general population.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of stress echocardiography for prognostication in coronary artery disease: an overview.

TL;DR: The role of stress echocardiography for prognostication in coronary artery disease is defined, pointing out the ability of this technique to identify low-risk and high-risk subsets among patients with known or suspected coronary artery Disease and thus guide patient management decisions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk stratification of patients with classic angina pectoris and no history of coronary artery disease by dobutamine stress echocardiography.

TL;DR: The incremental value of myocardial ischemia assessed by dobutamine stress echocardiography for predicting cardiac events has been shown in various patient groups and the clinical utility of non-invasive stress testing has been mostly established.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictive accuracy of echocardiographic response of mildly dyssynergic myocardial segments to low-dose dobutamine.

TL;DR: Low-dose dobutamine echocardiography has a high sensitivity for predicting functional recovery after revascularization, but in segments with mild wall motion abnormalities, the specificity of the technique is rather low, suggesting overestimation of functional recovery in these segments.
