To evaluate the diagnostic value of an exercise-induced increase in R-wave amplitude (RWA) for detecting coronary artery disease (CAD), treadmill testing using the modified Bruce protocol was performed on a CASE II computerized system (Marquette) in 10 healthy young men, 35 patients (pts) with CAD, 22 subjects with normal coronary arteries, and 11 pts with aortic or mitral regurgitation. Based on the analysis of the patterns of serial changes in RWA in lead V5, we proposed new RWA criteria for detecting CAD. (1) During exercise, RWA increases in stage 1 and subsequently increases further or remains unchanged. (2) During exercise, RWA decreases in the early phase of exercise and subsequently increases. (3) In the recovery period, RWA shows a gradual and excessive increase. A combination of the above RWA criteria showed a sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of an equal value of 86%. We conclude that an exercise-induced RWA increase is a useful indicator for detecting CAD, especially when taking the patterns of serial changes into consideration, and that the abnormal RWA increase may be related to an increase in left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic volume due to exercise-induced LV dysfunction.
