Background:Symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) is prevalent and targeted therapies include optimal medical care (OMC), supervised exercise therapy (SET) and revascularization (ST). Although most PAD trials focus on objective outcomes, improvement in quality of life is important to the patient.

If you have narrowing in blood vessels which only stop blood from getting through at times of stress or exercise then an ECG or an ECHO at rest may be completely normal despite there being a problem. We then exercise the patient, give the dye again and take another image. Here the patient is given some dye.

This approach also reduces death from heart disease and heart attacks by 41% compared to conventional approaches such as exercise stress testing 2. The use of CTCA is often the only test that is required, therefore, avoiding further invasive testing. But that’s a whole can of worms for another day).

They had a history of non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (EF 30%), as well as PCI with one stent. Exercise can convert atrial flutter from 2:1 conduction to 1:1, apparently due to a combination of accelarated AV conduction and slowed flutter conduction. Home medications included metoprolol, but no calcium- or sodium-channel blocking agents.
