Abstract

Objective:To determine the diagnostic value of treadmill exercise test(TET)in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD)by comparing the diagnostic conclusion with coronary angiography(CAG). Methods:61 patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)and suspected CHD underwent treadmill exercise test and coronary angiography (CAG), and the diagnostic conclusions were compared. Results: The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and agreement rate in diagnosis of CHD by treadmill exercise test were 80.56%,68.00%, 78.38% and 75.41%, respectively. The patients with multi-vessel diseased had a higher positive rate of TET as compared with those with single diseased vessel(P0.05). Conclusion:The treadmill exercise test is valuable in noninvasive diagnosis of CHD, especially for patients with multi-vessel diseased.
