Pacing stress echocardiography

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2005
Background High-rate pacing is a valid stress test to be used in conjunction with echocardiography; it is independent of physical exercise and does not require drug administration.

Stress Echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2003
Stress echocardiography may be performed with exercise and nonexercise stressors, although the use of echo contrast agents makes insertion of an intravenous line important for both techniques. The selection of either stress protocol should be tailored to each patient, and in the opinion of this author, an effective stress echo laboratory should offer ...

Arbutamine stress echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 1997
Arbutamine, a new potent non-selective beta-adrenoceptor agonist with mild alpha 1-sympathomimetic activity, has been developed specifically for pharmacological stress testing. The drug acts like physical exercise, increasing both heart rate and myocardial contractility.

Dobutamine stress echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Cardiology, 1992
Two-dimensional echocardiography is a versatile, accurate, and readily available method for the assessment of cardiac anatomy and function, and extensive experience has been gained in the analysis of left ventricular wall motion. Using modern imaging techniques, regional as well as global wall motion analysis can be performed.

Dobutamine stress echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 1997
Dobutamine is a synthetic catecholamine with predominant beta-stimulation. Its half-life is approximately 2 min. The positive chronotropic and inotropic effects of dobutamine induce myocardial ischaemia if significant coronary artery obstruction is present.

Induced myocardial ischemia in candidates to liver transplantation without evidence of heart disease

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2023
Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is associated with perioperative liver transplantation (LT) mortality. In absence of a defined risk algorithm, we aimed to test whether stress echocardiography and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA ...

Síndrome do coração partido (Síndrome de Takotsubo) induzida por ecocardiograma de estresse com dobutamina Síndrome del corazón roto (síndrome de Tako-Tsubo) inducido por ecocardiograma de esfuerzo con dobutamina Dobutamine stress echocardiography-induced broken heart syndrome (Takotsubo Syndrome)

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2009
Relatamos um caso de síndrome de Takotsubo induzida por ecocardiograma de estresse com dobutamina em uma paciente de 76 anos, hipertensa com queixas clínicas de dor precordial, em consulta cardiológica eletiva.

The multi-modality cardiac imaging approach to the Athlete's heart: an expert consensus of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The term 'athlete's heart' refers to a clinical picture characterized by a slow heart rate and enlargement of the heart. A multi-modality imaging approach to the athlete's heart aims to differentiate physiological changes due to intensive training in the
