Heart, 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 ...

QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 1995 Stress echocardiography has now emerged from the days of research and clinical evaluation to take its place alongside other non-invasive imaging methods in coronary artery disease. It is safe, versatile, and clinically accurate. It has been validated against radionuclide perfusion imaging; the cost and convenience advantages for echocardiography must ...

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

Arbutamine stress echocardiography [PDF]
European 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.
