Silent Ischemia
IntroductionAsymptomatic ST-segment depression during ambulatory electrocardiogram monitoring occurs more often than symptomatic ST-segment depression in patients with coronary artery disease.
Silent Ischemia
Introductionsilent ischemia may persist despite current-era treatment and might still identify patients with increased risk of CV events.
Silent ischemia
1970s, asymptomatic ST segment depression during ambulatory ECG monitoring > symptomatic ST segment depression in patients with CAD.
1980s and 1990s, silent ischemia was associated with adverse events
Review of clinical significance is warranted
Definition, Diagnosis, and Mechanism
May be detected in patients:
1.) no symptoms during an exercise or pharmaceutical stress test but do have transient ST-segment changes,
2.) perfusion defects, 3.)or reversible regional wall motion
abnormalities.
Definition, Diagnosis and Mechanism
Definition, Diagnosis and Mechanism
The combination of an increasing demand and an altered supply secondary to abnormal microvascular and endothelial response is a possible explanation for the mechanism of silent ischemia.
Prevalence
Nearly one-half of patients with stable CAD are shown to have transient ST-segment depressions.
One-half of patients admitted with UA
Have risk factors for CAD : 15% with mild-to-moderate hypertension who had no signs nor symptoms of CAD, 12% of NIDDM. Half of these patients were found to have perfusion defects during thallium scintigraphy.
Prevalence
Even healthy patients without risk factors for CAD have been shown to have silent ischemia.
24% of apparently healthy individuals either had an abnormal stress test or perfusion study.
Prognosis of Patients with Silent Ischemia
Patients with stable CAD In patients with
medically managed CAD, the likelihood of death or myocardial infarction during the 7 years of follow up was similar between patients with asymptomatic ST segment depression with exercise.
Prognosis of Patients with Silent Ischemia
Healthy Subjects
Zellweger et al. 3,664 consecutive asymptomatic patients without known CAD who had undergone myocardial perfusion imaging.
> 7.5% ischemic myocardium, increased risk of CV events.
Medical Therapy and RevascularizationThe ACIP trial
(Asymptomatic Cardiac Ischemia Pilot Study)
618 Participants were randomized to medical therapy vs. revascularization.
Conclusion: ACIP demonstrated increased suppression of ischemic episodes and decreased CV outcomes in PCI group
