Does dobutamine stress echocardiography predict mortality and non-fatal AMI in stable survivors early after acute myocardial infarction?
Hazard Ratio: 3.6
p-value: p=<0.01
Dobutamine stress echocardiography performed early after acute myocardial infarction provides incremental prognostic information over clinical and resting LV function data for predicting death and non-fatal AMI.

S P Kumar (2005) conducted a cohort in Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (n=212). Systolic wall thickening index (SWTI) at low dose dobutamine stress echocardiography was evaluated on Mortality (HR 3.6, p=<0.01).
