Exercise ECG

  • Down sloping or horizontal ST segment depressions are very suggestive of myocardial ischemia, particularly when these changes occur:
  • at a low workload,
  • during early stages of exercise,
  • persist for more than 3 minutes after exercise, or
  • are accompanied by chest discomfort that is compatible with angina.


  • Conditions that increase the probability of exercise ECG yielding false positive results are:
  • On the other hand, a fall in systolic pressure of 10 mmHg or more during exercise or the appearance of a murmur of mitral regurgitation during exercise increases the probability that, an abnormal stress ECG is a true positive test result.
  • Exercise electrocardiography has a sensitivity of about 70% for detecting CAD and a specificity of about 75% for excluding it. To assess the probability of coronary artery disease in an individual patient, the exercise ECG result must be integrated with the clinical presentation.


  • Variables of the Treadmill Exercise Test which indicate the high risk are:
  • Short exercise duration less than 5 METs,
  • Significant ST segment depression (magnitude ≥2 mm, starts at exercise stage I or II, duration of exercise test is <5 minutes and ≥5 leads with ST changes,
  • Significant changes in blood pressure: low peak systolic blood pressure (<130 mm Hg), significant decrease in systolic blood pressure during the test (below the resting standing blood pressure),
  • Inability to attain to the target heart rate,
  • Presence of exercise induced angina,
  • Presence of frequent ventricular ectopy (e.g. couplets or tachycardia) at low workload.
