prevalence of coronary artery disease complex ventricular arrhythmias and silent myocardial ischemia and incidence of new coronary events in older persons with chronic renal insufficiency and with normal renal function
American Journal of Cardiology, 2000Co-Authors: Wilbert S Aronow, Chul Ahn, Anthony D Mercando, Stanley EpsteinAbstract:In a prospective study of 98 persons > or = 65 years of age with chronic renal insufficiency (serum creatinine > 3.0 mg/dl) for > 1 year and 98 age- and sex-matched persons with normal renal function (serum creatinine < or = 1.2 mg/dl), new coronary events developed at 23-month follow-up in 69 persons (70%) with chronic renal insufficiency and at 48-month follow-up in 24 persons (24%) with normal renal function (p < 0.0001). Significant independent risk factors for new coronary events were age (risk ratio 1.1), prior coronary artery disease (risk ratio 3.5), complex ventricular arrhythmias diagnosed by 24-hour Ambulatory Electrocardiography (risk ratio 2.5), silent myocardial ischemia diagnosed by 24-hour Ambulatory Electrocardiography (risk ratio 1.9), and chronic renal insufficiency (risk ratio 3.4).

prognostic significance of silent myocardial ischemia in patients 61 years of age with extracranial internal or common carotid arterial disease with and without previous myocardial infarction
American Journal of Cardiology, 1993Co-Authors: Wilbert S Aronow, Chul Ahn, Anthony D Mercando, Stanley Epstein, Myron R SchoenfeldAbstract:Abstract Patients with extracranial carotid disease (ECD) have an increased incidence of coronary events. 1–3 We are reporting data from a prospective study correlating silent myocardial ischemia detected by 24-hour Ambulatory Electrocardiography with the incidence of new coronary events at 43-month mean follow-up in elderly patients with 40 to 100% ECD with and without coronary artery disease (CAD).

prognostic significance of silent ischemia in elderly patients with peripheral arterial disease with and without previous myocardial infarction
American Journal of Cardiology, 1992Co-Authors: Wilbert S Aronow, Chul Ahn, Anthony D Mercando, Stanley EpsteinAbstract:Abstract Early postoperative silent myocardial ischemia detected by Ambulatory Electrocardiography (ECG) in patients undergoing peripheral vascular surgery for occlusive peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is associated with clinical ischcmic events after surgery. 1 Patients undergoing peripheral vascular surgery who had silent myocardial ischemia before surgery detected by Ambulatory ECG had an increased incidence of major postoperative cardiac events after surgery. 2 At a mean follow-up of 615 days after peripheral vascular surgery, cardiac events occurred in 12 of 32 (38%) patients with ischemia before surgery detected by Ambulatory ECG and in 10 of 144 (7%) without myocardial ischemia (relative risk 5.4). 3 We are reporting data from a prospective study correlating silent myocardial ischemia detected by 24-hour Ambulatory ECG with the incidence of new coronary events at a 43-month mean follow-up in elderly patients with PAD and coronary artery disease (CAD) and in those with PAD and hypertension, valvular heart disease or cardiomyopathy without CAD.

acc aha clinical competence statement on Electrocardiography and Ambulatory Electrocardiography
Circulation, 2001Co-Authors: Alan H Kadish, Alfred E Buxton, Harold L Kennedy, Bradley P Knight, Jay W Mason, Claudio Schuger, William L Winters, Alan W Boone, Michael ElnickiAbstract:The granting of clinical staff privileges to physicians is a primary mechanism used by institutions to uphold the quality of care. The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations requires that the granting of continuing medical staff privileges be based on assessments of applicants against professional criteria specified in the medical staff bylaws. Physicians themselves are thus charged with identifying the criteria that constitute professional competence and with evaluating their peers accordingly. Yet, the process of evaluating physicians’ knowledge and competence is often constrained by the evaluator’s own knowledge and ability to elicit the appropriate information, problems compounded by the growing number of highly specialized procedures for which privileges are requested. The American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association/American College of Physicians–American Society of Internal Medicine (ACC/AHA/ACP–ASIM) Task Force on Clinical Competence was formed in 1998 to develop recommendations for attaining and maintaining the cognitive and technical skills necessary for the competent performance of a specific cardiovascular service, procedure, or technology. These documents are evidence-based, and when evidence is not available, expert opinion is utilized to formulate recommendations. Indications and contraindications for specific services or procedures are not included in the scope of these documents. Recommendations are intended to assist those who must judge the competence of cardiovascular health care providers entering practice for the first time and/or those who are in practice and undergo periodic review of their practice expertise. The assessment of competence is complex and multidimensional; therefore, isolated recommendations contained herein may not necessarily be sufficient or appropriate for judging overall competence. The ACC/AHA/ACP–ASIM Task Force makes every effort to avoid any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might arise as a result of an outside relationship or personal interest of a member of the ACC/AHA Writing Committee. Specifically, all members of the Writing Committee are …
