Left-Ventricular Power-to-Mass Ratio at Peak Exercise Predicts Mortality, Heart Failure, and Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Stable Coronary Artery Disease: Data from the Heart and Soul Study

BACKGROUND: Quantitative stress echocardiography enables calculation of left-ventricular power-to-mass ratio (LVPMR) at peak exercise, a novel measure of cardiac performance per unit mass of myocardial tissue. We hypothesized that LVPMR at peak exercise provides prognostic information beyond establi...
