Implication

Viability testing and revascularization may aid hibernating myocardium recovery; leaves open confirmation of growth factors and stem cells in prospective trials.

Structured PICO

Population

Patients with chronic ischemic disease and hibernating myocardium

Intervention

Management strategies including surgical revascularization, growth factors (VEGF, FGF-2), pharmacological agents (statins, resveratrol, omega-3 fatty acids), and stem cell transplantation

This review provides a comprehensive overview of the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and emerging therapeutic strategies for hibernating myocardium in chronic ischemic heart disease.
