Popis: Electrocardiograms and radionuclide ventriculograms were obtained at rest and on exercise in 23 patients (20 men and 3 women, mean age 53.4 years) with exercise-dependent myocardial ischaemia after infarction, as well as in 22 persons (17 men and 5 women, mean age 43 years) without clinical, electrocardiographic and biochemical evidence of coronary heart disease. Among the ischaemia patients exercise-dependent loss of motility, as measured by regional ejection fraction and Fourier amplitude, occurred in 95% (50% of controls) in one sector, in 78% (4.5% of controls) in the two sectors with the highest contractility at rest, and in 74% (0% of controls) in three sectors. On exercise, phase shifts occurred in 87% (27% of controls). When combining the exercise-ECG, global ejection fraction as well as regional motility loss in one sector, in the two sectors with the highest contractility at rest and in three sectors, at least two of the five criteria of abnormality were present in 91.3% of the ischaemia patients, compared with at most one criterion in 90.9% of controls. The results indicate the greater diagnostic value of regional than global measures of ventricular function and emphasize the importance of radionuclide ventriculography as an addition to exercise electrocardiography in the pre-invasive diagnosis of coronary heart disease.
