  2. 1. Blood pressure, blood pressure variability and myocardial ischemia : studies in patients with peripheral arterial disease and matched control subjects

    Author : Per Svensson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Peripheral vascular diseases; hypertension drug therapy; ambulatory blood pressure monitoring; coronary artery disease; ambulatory electrocardiography; SPECT; NT-proBNP;

Ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) monitoring improves risk stratification in hypertensive patients beyond that offered by office BP(OBP) measurements. READ MORE

  4. 2. Unstable post-infarction ischemia : identification and risk stratification with special emphasis on noninvasive methods

    Author : Miguel Quintana; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : myocardial infarction; myocardial ischemia; prognosis; exercise test; stress echocardiogaphy. ambulatoryelectrocardiography; heart rate variability.Stockholm 1996;
