Cardiac stress testing, used since the 1960s, has a history rooted in the diagnostic and prognostic assessment of patients with suspected coronary artery disease. It has evolved to evaluate inducible myocardial ischemia as an indicator of adverse outcomes.

Stress testing is a form of deliberately intense or thorough testing, used to determine the stability of a given system, critical infrastructure or entity. It involves testing beyond normal operational capacity, often to a breaking point, in order to observe the results.
19 Σεπ 2022 · A chemical stress test is a common, safe, and effective test that can simulate the heart’s response to exercise. This test is commonly used when a standard exercise stress test isn’t an...
Stress testing is less invasive and less expensive than cardiac catheterization, and it detects abnormalities of blood flow; however, it is less accurate for diagnosis in patients with a low pretest likelihood of CAD. It can define the functional significance of abnormalities in coronary artery anatomy identified with coronary angiography ...
1 Σεπ 2022 · A main objective of stress testing is to assess the functional or physiological consequences of anatomic coronary artery disease (CAD). The traditional gold standard test for the diagnosis of CAD is invasive coronary angiography via cardiac catheterization.
26 Μαρ 2024 · In a stress test — also known as an exercise or treadmill test — a doctor monitors a person’s heart rate as they exercise or undergo a chemical stressor. It can show how well a person’s...
Various stress tests are currently available to aid in the assessment of patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease, including standard treadmill exercise (less commonly, bicycle ergometer) testing with electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring, myocardial perfusion imaging with thallium-201 or 99m Tc sestamibi, radionuclide angiograph...
