The author studied the feasibility and value of two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) duringhandgrip-exercise for the detection of left ven-tricular asynergy in 45 patients who underwent coronary arteriography because of chest pain. Left ventricular wall visualized in the short-axis plane was divided into 5 segments, and a total of 225 segments was analyzed.

Wall motion assessed by the resting 2DE was normal in 32 patients and abnormal in 13. Hand-grip-exercise induced abnormal wall motion in 17 of 32 patients. The analysis of the segments with normal wall motion at rest revealed that 46 (94%) of 49 segments with exercise-induced asynergy reflected significant stenosis (>50%) in the perfusing coronary artery. In particular, 16 (89%) of 18 segments with exercise-induced akinesis reflected stenosis of greater than 90%. Of 88 segments perfused by normal coronary arteries, 85 (97%) did not demonstrate abnormal wall motion during handgrip-exercise. Rest and/ or exercise-2DE was able to diagnose multivessel disease with a predictability of 92%. The sen-sitivity to diagnose coronary artery disease was lower with handgrip-exercise 2DE (60%) than with treadmill-exercise electrocardiography (80%) or bicycle-exercise myocardial perfusion imaging (70%).
