Why the study?
Does the presence of transient ST segment changes on ambulatory monitoring after CABG predict adverse cardiovascular events?
Does the presence of transient ST segment changes on ambulatory monitoring after CABG predict adverse cardiovascular events?
Routine ambulatory ST segment monitoring after CABG does not identify patients at higher risk for adverse cardiovascular events over long-term follow-up, suggesting it has no prognostic utility in this setting.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Transient ST changes lack prognostic value after CABG; does not support routine ambulatory monitoring and leaves open its role in selected patients.
Patel et al. (1993) studied this question.
