Prognostic Value of a Nine-Minute Treadmill Test in Patients Undergoing Myocardial Perfusion Scintigraphy

Exercise capacity is an important predictor of risk in known or suspected coronary disease. A negative treadmill test to 9 minutes of the Bruce protocol is often used in the screening process for vocational licensing; myocardial perfusion scintigraphy is an alternative for those unable to exercise,...

description Exercise capacity is an important predictor of risk in known or suspected coronary disease. A negative treadmill test to 9 minutes of the Bruce protocol is often used in the screening process for vocational licensing; myocardial perfusion scintigraphy is an alternative for those unable to exercise, with apparent incremental prognostic power above exercise testing alone. We compared exercise test and myocardial perfusion scintigraphic (MPS) findings and risk of hard cardiac events (median 4 years) in patients completing ≥9-minute treadmill exercise. Patients undergoing myocardial perfusion scintigraphy who completed a 9-minute Bruce protocol exercise were identified over a 2-year period. Follow-up was performed by telephone, with case-note review when necessary; this was 97% complete. Five hundred sixteen patients were identified (73% men, median age 53 year). One hundred eighty-one (35%) had known coronary disease. One hundred forty-nine (29%) had a “high-risk” exercise test result (limiting chest pain or ST-segment depression), and 69 (13%) had high-risk MPS findings (>10% myocardium ischemic or ejection fraction
