Does stress echocardiography add incremental value to baseline ejection fraction for the early identification of candidates for implantable defibrillators?
OBJECTIVE: A reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) remains the strongest indicator of increased risk of sudden cardiac death after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Guidelines recommend that patients with an EF ≤35%, 6–12 weeks after AMI should be considered for implantable cardio...
