  8. DIAGNOSTIC TESTING Ronald D’Agostino, D.O., F.A.C.C., F.A.C.P.

  9. HISTORY & PHYSICAL • Most important test • 80% of diagnosis from history • Testing to confirm clinical • Testing without knowledge of patient issues

  10. Statistics

  11. PROBABILITY • False Positive (FP) • False Negative (FN) • Prevalence • Positive Predictive Value (PPV) • Negative Predictive Value (NPV) • Sensitivity • Specificity

  12. SENSITIVITY& SPECIFICITY Sensitivity = True Positive True Positive + False Negative Specificity = True Negative True Negative + False Positive

  13. PREVALENCE • Percent of population with disease • Varies with the type of patient the doctor is seeing

  14. PREDICTIVE VALUE Positive Predictive Value = True Positive True Positive + False Positive Negative Predictive Value = True Negative True Negative + False Positive

  15. DIAGNOSIS • Prevalence • Sensitivity • Specificity • Predictive Value • Pre Test Probability • Post Test Probability

  16. 10% prevalence 1000 patients 100 with disease 900 without disease 80% sensitivity, 80% specificity TEST TRUTH (+) (-) (+) 80 180 (-) 20 720 ____ ____ 100 900 PREDICTIVE VALUE PPV=80/260 =25% NPV=720/740 = 95% EXAMPLE WITH LOW PREVALENCE

  17. 90% prevalence 1000 patients 900 with disease 100 without disease 80% sensitivity, 80% specificity TEST TRUTH (+) (-) (+) 720 20 (-) 180 80 ____ ____ 900 100 PREDICTIVE VALUE PPV=720/740 =95% NPV=80/260 = 30% EXAMPLE WITH HIGH PREVALENCE

  18. DIAGNOSTIC TESTING • General Screening • Overall function • Plumbing • Pump • Valves • Wiring

  19. BLOOD WORK • Chemistry Endocrine: Glucose, HBA1c Renal Function Liver Function • CBC -Homocysteine Level, C-Reactive Protein • Lipids -Total Cholesterol, HDL, LDL, Lipoproteins • Coagulation • Thyroid Function

  20. CHEST X-RAY • Heart Size • Chamber Size • Lungs • Limited Information • Aorta

  21. EKG • Electrocardiogram • Very useful • Old Infarcts • Conduction • Heart Block • Hypertrophy

  22. HEMODYNAMIC PROFILE (HDP) • Non-Invasive Scan • Measures cardiovascular pressures & efficacy of therapy • Helps direct therapy • Very useful for treating Hypertension & Heart Failure

  23. EXERCISE STRESS TESTING • Overall Function • Coronaries, Ventricular Function, Valves. Conduction • Treadmill, Bicycle • Cardiac Monitoring • Diagnosis & Progress • After Myocardial Infarction

  24. THALLIUM STRESS TESTING • Coronary Perfusion • Thallium follows blood flow • Radioisotope Thallium 201 IV • Camera • Stress--Rest

  25. MYOVIEW or CARDIOLITE STRESS TESTING • Similar to Thallium • Better Images • Technetium 99, Tetrofosmin or Sestamibi IV • Rest--Stress or Stress--Rest

  26. PERSANTINE STRESS TESTING • Can’t Exercise • Peripheral Vascular Disease • Orthopedic Difficulty • Elderly • Vasodilator IV • Stress--Rest • Thallium or Myoview Cardiolite IV

  35. CAROTID DOPPLER • Internal and external carotid arteries • Vertebral arteries • Plaquing of arteries - Intimal Thickness • Obstruction • TIA, CVA, SX • Unequal blood pressures • Identify patients at risk for Stroke • Identify patients who may benefit from Carotid Endarterectomy or Stent

  36. HOLTER • Electrical System • Slow, Fast • Heart Block • Ventricular Tachycardia • Correlate with symptoms • Palpitations, Dizziness • After Myocardial Infarction • Sudden Death Risk

  37. SIGNAL AVERAGE ECG • Prognosis with Ventricular Tachycardia • Dizziness, Palpitations • After Myocardial Infarction • Use in Consideration with Holter and studies of Ventricular Function • Sudden Death Risk

  42. AMBULATORY BLOOD PRESSURE AND HEART RATE • To monitor Blood Pressure and Pulse at home • 24 hr. Recording vs. Intermittent use by patient periodically and as per symptom • White Coat Hypertension • Extremely useful to diagnose hypertension and assess efficacy of therapy

  43. EPS • Electrophysiology Study • Invasive • Hospitalization • Electrical Stimulation of Heart • Measure Conduction System: Bradyarrythmias, Heart Block • Essential with Severe Symptoms or High Risk patients • Syncope • Ventricular Tachycardia

  44. ABLATION • WPW: Wolff-Parkinson-White • Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT) • Bypass Tracts • High Radio Frequency • May be useful for VT or Atrial Fibrillation • AV Nodal Ablation

  46. ICD’S • Implantable Cardiovertors Defibrillators • Saves Lives • For High Risk patients • Like living with an EMS Technician

  47. AED’S • Automatic External Defibrillators • Public Areas • Airports, Restaurants, Health Clinics • Saves Lives

  48. CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION • Definitive Test • Essential with Prognosis or Unstable symptoms • Hospital Procedure • Invasive • Some Risk • Coronary, Ventricular and Valves • Via Radial Artery
