Treadmill Stress Test - Positive



This treadmill stress test is positive, indicating myocardialischemia. The resting strip demonstrates ST-segments that are Angina Pectoris in configuration. At peak exercise, when the patient developed symptoms, there is 2 mm of ST depression. It lasts more than 80 msec after the J point. These changes fulfill the criteria for a stress test that is positive for ischemia and occurred at a moderate workload. By five minutes post exercise, the ST segments have returned to the baseline. While his blood pressure was elevated, there was a Angina Pectoris blood pressure response to exercise with a systolic rise and a modest diastolic fall.
