3 Disclosure of Commercial Support This program has not received financial or in-kind support Potential for conflict(s) of interest : Jennifer Gerryts and Kati Tuomi has not received payment/funding, etc. from an organization supporting this program AND/OR organization whose product(s) are being discussed in this program]. 3

4 Learning Objectives Describe the differences between a stress test and a nuclear stress test Differentiate the clinical indications for a stress test and a nuclear stress test 4

5 What is a Stress Test? Diagnostic tool in the management and evaluation of patients with known or suspected heart disease Aids in assessing the risk related to CHD Evaluation of efficacy of therapeutic interventions Exercise electrocardiography is the most common Can be combined with imaging (MPI) 5

6 Indications For Stress Testing Symptoms suggesting angina (stable) Patients with known coronary heart disease with new or worsening symptoms Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) Coronary revascularization Valvular heart disease Pre-op Changes in resting ECG 6

7 General Contraindications Acute myocardial infarction (within two days) Ongoing unstable angina Uncontrolled arrhythmias with hemodynamic compromise Symptomatic severe valvular stenosis Acute aortic dissection Acute pulmonary embolism, pulmonary infarction, or deep venous thrombosis Physical disability that precludes safe and adequate testing 7

8 Contraindications For Stress Testing Exercise Stress Test De-condition/Unable Beta Blocker LVH (hides ischemia) Left Bundle Branch, Right Bundle Branch (V2, V3) Ventricular Paced Rhythm Greater than 1 mm ST depression at rest Hypertension Pharmacological Stress Test (Persantine) Severe Asthma Caffeine within 24hrs Medications: aggrenox 2 nd or 3 rd degree block without pacemaker 8

9 Choosing The Optimal Stress Test Clinical Indication / Patient History? Can the Patient Exercise? Does the patient have a large body habitus? Lung Disease? Abnormal resting ECG? Contraindications? 9

10 Stress Test Protocol Differences 1. Exercise Stress Test 2. Cardiolite Stress Test (Exercise) 3. Persantine Stress Test 10

11 Positive Exercise Stress Test V tach ( 3 or more PVCs in a row) ST depression ST horizontal ST elevation 11

12 Myocardial Perfusion Imaging 12

13 Protocol Fasting for 4 hours prior to test Caffeine free for 24 hours Sestamibi Technetium 99m Low rest dose high stress dose 2 day procedure for high BMIs Injection at rest -60 minute wait until images Stress injection minute wait until images

14 How? Vasodilation of arteries to heart muscle Rest vs stress More workload put on heart during stress Improper patient preparation or sub optimal stress test can lead to false negatives

15 Gamma Camera Acquires an image from the gamma rays Low dose CT used for attenuation correction Patient considerations Lie flat Claustrophobia Tolerate protocol
