Why the study?

Does reduced heart rate variability predict angiographic coronary artery disease beyond Framingham risk in patients with stable angina?

Population

514 patients with stable angina (age, 66.1 ± 14.3 years, 358 men) undergoing catheterization

Design

Cross-sectional

Discussion

Member takes

Implication

Reduced HRV may identify angiographic CAD beyond Framingham risk in stable angina; leaves open its incremental value for risk stratification.
