GW28-e0776 Three Year Follow-Up of Patients with Left Ventricular Dysfunction Causing Ischemia and Patent Coronary Arteries

The aim of this study was to clarify the mechanistic causes of new onset HF associated with ischemic EKG changes, chest pain in patients with patent or minimally diseased coronary arteries. Methods In group A, 20 patients were consecutively selected using the following criteria: (1) history of new o...

Description
Summary:The aim of this study was to clarify the mechanistic causes of new onset HF associated with ischemic EKG changes, chest pain in patients with patent or minimally diseased coronary arteries. Methods In group A, 20 patients were consecutively selected using the following criteria: (1) history of new onset of HF on presentation to the emergency room, (2) having chest pain on the index admission, (3) EKG changes indicating ischemia (ST depression or T wave inversion and no ST segment elevation), AND (4) negative coronary angiogram.
