69 year old white male. Wgt. 250 lbs. 69". Post bilateral knee replacement. Slow recovery. Now doing treadmill, level, 3.5 - 17 min. mile, and other exercises. Have lost 110 lbs in 5.5 years. Would like to get down another 30 lbs. Increasing each month in exercise, home landscaping etc. Have a functional mitral value murmur. 55% functioning right side when I had bilateral knee replacement 11/04/07. Have had some mild discomfort doing treadmill faster forcing air flow, and bench press. Asked G.P. in Family Practice Clinic for referral for a Echo-cardo treadmill test. Lasted 2.5 minutes on inclining plane and increasing speed. Spiking P.V.C.'s followed by irregular heart rythm. Cardialogist said I had a malignant heart. There was no movement in Apex, and he had no idea if this was early damage or current and wanted me to do angio-gram. NOT quite ready to do this without further inquiry. Seems I had EKG Technitian, other attendants and Cardialogist concerned as they quickly got me off treadmill and back on bed to follow this change in heart rythm. I have another followup app't in two weeks with Cardialogist from OSU - second to head.
What does a stress test check for
A false positive ischemia result in a stress test occurs when the test indicates the presence of ischemia (reduced blood flow to the heart) despite there being no actual coronary artery disease. This can happen due to factors such as abnormal heart rhythms, technical errors, or individual variations in heart response to stress. Conditions like left bundle branch block or prior myocardial infarction can also lead to misleading results. Clinicians often corroborate stress test findings with further imaging or diagnostic procedures to confirm the presence of ischemia.
The chemical stress test is used to evaluate the heart.
No, stress can't influence the outcome of a pregnancy test.

A non stress test is not used as a standard diabetic testing. A non stress test is typically used with new mothers during pregnancy. This is a painless procedure to monitor the baby's heart rate.
Yes. In fact, the heart rate is specifically monitored to know when to stop the stress test.
question is too broad - need detail of specific type of stress test

JB Weld is highly effective in withstanding stress during a stress test, as it is a strong and durable adhesive that can bond various materials together securely.
A person can conduct a cpu stress test by using the How Does it Run website. They are able to test what a computer can and can't do, and how fast it runs.
