Student Answer: False True (This statement is true: the leads on the ECG showing ischemic changes during or immediately after an ETT can correlate roughly to the culprit artery or arteries with significant CAD. ) 18. Question : Ischemic changes on ECG during ETT is highly predictive of CAD. What is another important strong predictor of CAD that you might see during an ETT? Student Answer: Slow heart rate Exercise-induced hypotension (Another important strong predictor of CAD that you might see during an ETT is exercise-induced hypotension. ) Exercise-induced hypertension Rapid heart rate 19. Question : In CAD, after both systolic and diastolic dysfunction have occurred, the typical pattern of chest pain and related EKG changes occur. During an EKG, you should expect to see ST-segment and T-wave changes that are central to demonstration of ischemia occurring relatively late in the ischemic cascade. Is this true or false?
