(a) to assess short (1 year) and long-term (5 year) changes in left ventricular ejection fraction in patients with stable coronary disease with or without ECG evidence of transient ischaemia during daily life on routine therapy, and (b) to assess whether patients with recurrent transient ischaemic episodes have a particular propensity to gradual deterioration in left ventricular ejection fraction in the absence of infarction.
