Key result
Exercise stress tests guide ischemic heart disease diagnosis, risk stratification, and treatment monitoring.
Exercise stress testing remains a fundamental and accessible clinical tool for diagnosing ischemic heart disease, stratifying risk, and guiding medical therapy.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports exercise testing for IHD risk stratification; leaves open need for prospective validation in contemporary cohorts.
The second part of the review focuses on the main principles of exercise tests, protocols of exercise tests, prognostic significance of the values obtained in ischemic heart disease. The problems are accounted on how to use the results of exercise tests for pretest probability of ischemic heart disease, to stratify the risk of cardiovascular complications, to evaluate the efficacy and prognosis.

Воронина et al. (2015) conducted a review in Ischemic heart disease. Exercise tests (ECG stress testing) was evaluated. Exercise tests provide critical information for determining the pretest probability of ischemic heart disease, stratifying cardiovascular risk, and evaluating treatment efficacy.
