Clinical Applications of CASE

1. Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD):
• Ischemia Detection: Identifies signs of myocardial ischemia, such as ST-segment depression or elevation, indicating the presence of coronary artery blockages.
• Symptom Assessment: Correlates chest pain, shortness of breath, and other symptoms with ECG changes during exercise.
2. Exercise Tolerance Evaluation:
• Functional Capacity: Measures the patient's exercise capacity, which is crucial for assessing functional status and prognosis in various cardiac conditions.
• Rehabilitation Guidance: Provides data to guide cardiac rehabilitation programs and track patient progress.
3. Assessment of Arrhythmias:
• Arrhythmia Detection: Identifies exercise-induced arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, and other abnormal rhythms.
• Risk Stratification: Helps in stratifying patients at risk for sudden cardiac events.
4. Preoperative Evaluation:
• Surgical Risk Assessment: Assesses cardiac risk before non-cardiac surgeries, especially in patients with known or suspected heart disease.
• Fitness for Surgery: Evaluates the patient’s cardiovascular fitness to undergo surgical procedures.
5. Medication Efficacy:
• Therapy Evaluation: Assesses the effectiveness of anti-anginal medications and other cardiac therapies by monitoring the heart’s response to exercise.
• Dose Adjustment: Helps in adjusting medication dosages based on the exercise tolerance and ECG findings.
6. Chronic Disease Management:
• Heart Failure Monitoring: Evaluates exercise tolerance and helps in managing patients with chronic heart failure.
• Long-Term Follow-Up: Provides data for long-term follow-up and management of patients with chronic cardiac conditions.
