The Diagnostic dilemma of CAD in hypertensive patients Chestpainisacommonbutalsonon-specificsymptomin hypertensive patients both with and without CAD. Non invasive screening tests are not able to accurately discriminate between hypertensive patients with and without associated CAD. International guidelines are elusive on the recommended diagnostic pathway for detection of CAD in this group of patients. Early CV risk stratification and evaluation of markers of organ damage may improve diagnostic efficacy. ChinD,BattistoniA,TocciG,PasseriniJ,ParatiG,VolpeM.AmJHypertens.2012;25:1226-35.
ExerciseECG Exercise ECG tests have a low specificity and sensitivity for CAD determination, especially in hypertensive patients. This group of patients often have baseline ECG changes, especially in patients with LVH. ChinD,BattistoniA,TocciG,PasseriniJ,ParatiG,VolpeM.AmJHypertens.2012;25:1226-35.
ExerciseECG Weaknesses: Suboptimal sensitivity. Low sensitivity in identifying single vessel disease. the test is not diagnostic in situations where there are baseline ECG changes (such as evidence of left ventricular strain secondary to left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block). Low specificity in certain population of patients (such as pre-menopausal women). To increase the accuracy of the test it is necessary to achieve 85% of the maximum heart rate.

Stress echocardiography Strengths: higher sensitivity and specificity than the exrecise ECG test. ithasahigherprognosticvaluecomparedtotheexerciseecg (infacteveninthepresenceofapositiveexerciseecgtest,a negative stress echocardiogram predicts a low risk for coronary events). Higher sensitivity during exercise or with dobutamine, compared to using other vasodilating agents. It enables assessment of other concomitant structural cardiac abnormalities, such as valvular heart disease. Lack of radiation. ChinD,BattistoniA,TocciG,PasseriniJ,ParatiG,VolpeM.AmJ Hypertens. 2012;25: 1226-35.
Weaknesses: lower sensitivity in identifying one vessel disease or moderate stenosis. theinabilitytovisualisetheentireleftventricleina single window in certain patient groups. the assessment of the images is operator-dependent. it is mainly a qualitative, rather than a quantitative assessment. an inadequate acoustic window in certain patient groups limits the sensitivity and specificity of the test(such as Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients) ChinD,BattistoniA,TocciG,PasseriniJ,ParatiG,VolpeM.AmJHypertens.2012;25:1226-35.
Strengths: SPECT Quantitative method, which reduces operator bias and inter-observer variability. l New nuclear techniques such as the gated SPECT, enable a contemporary functional and perfusional assessment of the myocardium, hence increasing the specificity of the diagnosis of coronaropathy. Weaknesses: l l Poor spatial resolution( approx. 1cm). The need to use radioactive material limits the use of this diagnostic technique as a regular screening test in hypertensive patients.
