Overview

Physical examination findings in patients with stress cardiomyopathy are non-specific and non-diagnostic. The diagnosis of stress cardiomyopathy is largely based on ECG, echocardiographic findings, as well as cardiac catheterization.

Physical examination

The following physical examination findings may be seen in patients with stress cardiomyopathy:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Organ System Findings Suggestive Of
General appearance Patient may be anxious, ill-appearing or diaphoretic
Vital signs Cardiogenic shock
Cardiac Murmurs, S3, gallop rhythm, displaced PMI Heart failure
Respiratory Rales, crackles Pulmonary edema
