Exercise stress testing is a common method for detecting coronary artery disease early. However, its benefits in primary prevention and for identifying silent coronary artery disease remain unconfirmed.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Public Health
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Context:

  • Coronary artery disease (CAD) detection is a public health priority.
  • Exercise stress testing is widely used for infra-clinical CAD detection.
  • The benefits of exercise stress testing for silent CAD remain unconfirmed.

Purpose:

  • To summarize current knowledge on the diagnostic and prognostic performance of exercise stress testing in primary prevention.
  • To analyze the utility of exercise stress testing in asymptomatic patients.
  • To address whether exercise stress testing improves primary prevention, detects silent lesions, and enhances risk evaluation.

Summary:

  • Exercise stress testing is a documented investigation for detecting coronary artery disease (CAD) at an infra-clinical stage.

  • Formal confirmation of the benefits of exercise stress testing, or other tests, in detecting silent CAD is lacking.
  • This review examines the diagnostic and prognostic performance of exercise stress testing in primary prevention and its utility in asymptomatic individuals.

    • Impact:

    • Highlights the need for evidence-based application of exercise stress testing in primary prevention.
    • Informs clinical decision-making regarding the use of exercise stress testing in asymptomatic patients.
    • Contributes to the understanding of the role of exercise stress testing in managing coronary artery disease risk.
