title: [Prognostic value of early dipyridamole stress echocardiography in patients with first uncomplicated myocardial infraction].
abstract: Detection of contractility abnormalities during stress echocardiography could affect prognosis after myocardial infarction (MI). The aim of the study was to examine the prognostic value of dipyridamole stress echocardiography (E-DIP) in patients (pts) who survived the first Q-wave uncomplicated MI. The study group consisted of 137 pts--124 males and 13 females--mean age 54 years, range (32-75). E-DIP was performed between 10-17 day after MI. Cardiac events: death, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, angioplasty or coronary artery bypass grafting, were in 1 year follow-up observed. In-group with positive result of E-DIP (63 pts) the frequency of cardiac events was significantly higher compared to the group with negative result of E-DIP.
