Risk Stratification of Chronic Stable Angina
ACC / AHA Guidelines- Measurement of Rest LV Function by Echocardiography or Radionuclide Angiography (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
| “ |
Class I1. Echocardiography or radionuclide angiography (RNA) in patients with a history of prior MI, pathological Q waves, or symptoms or signs suggestive of heart failure to assess LV function. (Level of Evidence: B) 2. Echocardiography in patients with a systolic murmur suggesting mitral regurgitation to assess its severity and etiology. (Level of Evidence: C) 3. Echocardiography or RNA in patients with complex ventricular arrhythmias to assess LV function. (Level of Evidence: B) Class III1. Routine periodic reassessment of stable patients for whom no new change in therapy is contemplated. (Level of Evidence: C) 2. Patients with a normal ECG, no history of MI, and no symptoms or signs suggestive of heart failure. (Level of Evidence: B) |

ACC / AHA Guidelines- Risk Assessment and Prognosis in Patients With an Intermediate or High Probability of CAD (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
| “ |
Class I1. Patients undergoing initial evaluation. (Exceptions are listed below in classes IIb and III.) (Level of Evidence: B) 2. Patients after a significant change in cardiac symptoms. (Level of Evidence: C) Class IIb1. Patients with the following ECG abnormalities:
2. Patients who have undergone cardiac catheterization to identify ischemia in the distribution of a coronary lesion of borderline severity. (Level of Evidence: C) 3. Postrevascularization patients who have a significant change in anginal pattern suggesting ischemia. (Level of Evidence: C) Class III1. Patients with severe comorbidity likely to limit life expectancy or prevent revascularization. (Level of Evidence: C) |
