Abstract

Exercise testing commonly used by clinicians to characterize cardiovascular risk by detecting myocardial ischemia and assessing response to exercise. However, a consensus has not previously existed regarding the significance of exercise test-induced arrhythmias due to conflicting results from the available studies. Recent studies with longer follow-up and improved technology have therefore stimulated this current review of the topic. Despite the continued debate in the literature regarding the prognosis of ETIA in a general population, there is sufficient evidence to suggest that clinicians should closely evaluate and follow those patients with arrhythmias during exercise testing and aggressively modify risk factors for coronary artery disease.
