2008 and Incorporated 2006 ACC/AHA Guidelines for the Management of Patients with Valvular Heart Disease (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
Cardiac Stress Test (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
Class III |
"1. Excecise testing should not be performed in symptomatic patients with AS. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
Class IIb |
"1. Exercise testing in asymptomatic patients with AS may be considered to elicit exercise-induced symptoms and abnormal blood pressure responses. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
Asymptomatic Adolescents (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
Class IIa |
"1. Graded exercise testing is a reasonable diagnostic evaluation in the adolescent or young adult with AS who has a Doppler mean gradient greater than 30 mm Hg or a peak velocity greater than 3.5 m per second (peak gradient greater than 50 mm Hg) if the patient is interested in athletic participation, or if the clinical findings and Doppler findings are disparate. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
