Overview
2013 ESH/ESC Guidelines For The Management of Arterial Hypertension (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
Summary of Recommendations on The Search for Asymptomatic Cardiovascular Disease (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
| "1. Whenever history suggests myocardial ischaemia, a stress ECG test is recommended, and, if positive or ambiguous, an imaging stress test (stress echocardiography, stress cardiac magnetic resonance or nuclear scintigraphy) is recommended. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| Class IIa |
| "1. Ultrasound scanning of carotid arteries should be considered to detect vascular hypertrophy or asymptomatic atherosclerosis, particularly in the elderly. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
| "2. Carotid–femoral PWV should be considered to detect large artery stiffening. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
| "2. Ankle–brachial index should be considered to detect PAD. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
