A more complex stress test involves picturing the blood flow pattern in the heart muscle during peak exercise and after rest. A tiny amount of a radioisotope, usually thallium, is injected into a vein at peak exercise and is taken up by normal heart muscle. A radioactivity detector and computer record the pattern of radioactivity distribution to various parts of the heart muscle. Regional differences in radioisotope concentration and in the rates at which the radioisotopes disappear are measures of unequal blood flow due to coronary artery narrowing, or due to failure of uptake in scarred heart muscle.
u cant do stress test.........
yes u can't because he is asthmatic!!
is it 3333
If the patient is unable to exercise, test options include a dobutamine echocardiogram and a dipyridamole (Persantine) thallium test
If pt cant exercise---do drug + EKG
If pts EKG cant be read---DO Exercise +echo
If Pt cant exercise and EKG cant be read do---DRUG and ECHO (persantine/dobutamine/dipyrimadole) and thallium
