The sixth edition of Ellestad's classic text on cardiac stress
testing has been extensively updated and re-written to communicate
contemporary understanding of the classical principles of stress
testing to clinicians and researchers, students and seasoned
practitioners alike. The current techniques for performing stress
tests presented herein reflect major technologic advances in
imaging, physiologic monitoring and the assessment of
cardiovascular risk, addressing fundamental paradigm shifts in
interventional, surgical and medical treatment of heart disease.
Moreover, the text addresses the dramatic changes that are
occurring in patient demographics and the environmental,
socioeconomic, gender and genomic factors that crucially impact
heart disease and warrant attention when performing cardiac stress
testing. Chapters on the physiology of exercise testing including
practical details regarding protocols for conducting the stress
test, proper supervision, important parameters to be monitored, and
the diagnostic and prognostic information to be gleaned from the
electrocardiogram set the stage for expanded chapters on the use of
cardiac imaging in conjunction with stress testing. Physiologic and
metabolic considerations during stress testing are covered in
detail. Application of stress testing to special populations, such
as women, children, athletes, and individuals in both high and low
risk groups are covered in new chapters. Finally, the authors
address the use of stress testing in limited resource environments
and discuss global changes in the incidence of atherosclerosis, and
suggest how stress testing may evolve.
