Does Heart Rate Recovery predict mortality and cardiovascular events in patients with Type 2 Diabetes?
Heart rate recovery during standard diagnostic treadmill testing is a valuable prognostic marker for risk-stratifying patients with type 2 diabetes.
HRR provides information beyond traditional CV risk factors that could aid in the clinical risk stratification of patients with T2DM. The results suggest that HRR results should be incorporated into standard diagnostic treadmill testing reports and target those patients with T2DM and attenuated HRR who can benefit from directed therapies.
