“…Conventional exercise test parameters (ST depression and angina) were not found to be significant predictors of outcome [28], This is in agreement with the findings of pre vious investigators [17,34,35]: however, in this study, even with the consideration of clinical and hemodynamic parameters (such as exercise duration and blood pressure re sponse, as suggested by Krone et al [34]. the exercise test did not predict outcome.…”

“…[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Generally, aerobic exercise training lasting up to 30 min using a cycle ergometer or treadmill is carried out prior to hospital discharge, following the resumption of basic activities such as sitting, standing, self-care and level walking within the ward in the early days after AMI. [13][14][15][16][17] This predischarge exercise training can provide information on cardiovascular response that is useful for setting home activities guidelines, outpatient programs and socializing such as return to work after hospital discharge.…”

“…Direct measurement of LV function by means of EF is a poor predictor of exercise capacity [2], but it has been shown that indexes of impaired LV function during exercise predicts increased mortality [12][13][14], and in patients with congestive heart failure both EF and exercise capacity emerged as in dependent predictors of survival [15]. We have previously reported a beneficial effect of captopril on physical endurance in patients with LV dysfunction following MI [8], as have Pfeffer et al [7] and Lamas et al [16], The topic of the present paper is to relate indexes of systolic and diastolic function of the LV, as evaluated by echocardiography, to changes in Percentage change In exercise time…”
