[Importance of transesophageal pacing of the atrium in the diagnosis of ischemic heart disease]. 1991

S G Kozlov, and I Iu Mironova, and A A Liakishev

The diagnostic importance of transesophageal pacing of the atria (TPA) in revealing coronary heart disease was determined by means of comparing the pacing data with the clinical picture of the disease and coronarography readings in 231 patients. It is shown that the sensitivity of TPA in CHD diagnosis is equal to 80%, specificity to 70%, the predicting value of the positive result amounts to 86%, of the negative result to 59%. The greatest diagnostic importance belongs to the positive result of TRA in patients with typical angina pectoris and to the negative result in patients with cardialgia. The sensitivity and predicting value of TRA do not significantly differ from the corresponding indicators of bicycle ergometry. However, TPA is less specific.

D011237 Predictive Value of Tests In screening and diagnostic tests, the probability that a person with a positive test is a true positive (i.e., has the disease), is referred to as the predictive value of a positive test; whereas, the predictive value of a negative test is the probability that the person with a negative test does not have the disease. Predictive value is related to the sensitivity and specificity of the test.
