About this trial
To evaluate the ability of exercise ECG to discriminate between hypertensive heart disease-related and CAD-related abnormalities
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Patients with CAD and LVH
Disqualifiers
Patients with RBBB
Trial population
consecutive patients undergoing evaluation for suspected coronary artery disease will undergo exercise ECG testing (ExECG), transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), stress cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Patients will be stratified into four groups according to the presence or absence of LVH and obstructive CAD: LVH with obstructive CAD LVH without obstructive CAD No LVH with obstructive CAD No LVH without obstructive CAD

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
diagnostic performance of exercise ECG across the four predefined groups.
Differences in ECG response patterns will be compared according to the presence of LVH and obstructive CAD. Multivariable analysis will be performed to identify independent ECG predictors associated with obstructive CAD and inducible ischemia.
