title: [The incidence of silent myocardial ischemia].
abstract: Retrospectively evaluated was the patient population of the years 1982 to 1988 which underwent ergometric investigations concerning the appearance of silent myocardial ischaemias. In 256 reactions of exercise ischaemia of patients with definitive coronary disease in 47 cases angina pectoris appeared (18.4%). Reactions of ischaemia in a large area of the breast wall showed, compared with a small area of ischaemia, a significantly higher proportion of symptomatic episodes (34.3% vs 13.0%, P less than 0.05). Ergometric exercises lying below the norm of age were more frequently accompanied by symptomatic ischaemias than ischaemic reactions, which only appeared in a good area of performance (26.0% vs 11.4%, P less than 0.05). In addition to this more anginose complaints were found in patients, whose ischaemic reaction was accompanied by an insufficient frequency response (28.1% vs 9.8%, P less than 0.05).
