What are the benefits and limitations of functional exercise tests for diagnosing and evaluating risk in suspected coronary heart disease?
Functional exercise tests remain valuable tools for diagnosing coronary heart disease and estimating long-term patient risk.
Exercise testing may aid CHD risk evaluation; leaves open prospective validation of complex parameter analysis.
The literary review is focused on diagnostics of coronary heart disease (CHD) with the use of the most common functional exercise tests. The benefits and the lacks are discussed of a variety of tests for suspected CHD. The results of longitude controlled trials make now the physicians able to precisely enough estimate a risk of complications in a patient. Several diagnostic indexes are observed, that are based on complex analysis of clinical and simple instrumental parameters for long term risk evaluation in CHD and for the selection of adequate treatment method.
