Overview
One of the negative prognostic factor is the patients inability to perform exercise test. In patients who cannot exercise, depending on specific patient factors like heart rate, blood pressure, the presence or absence of bronchospasm, the presence of left bundle-branch block , and ventricular arrhythmias suitable type of pharmacologic stress test [1] [2] is advised. Vasodilators such as dipyridamole or adenosine are routinely used as they increase the cardiac workload and hence increase the overall coronary blood flow. [3]
