Background: During exercise stress echocardiography (ESE), there are patients with normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) who paradoxically develop reduced LVEF during exercise despite absence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and a significant hypertensive response. This study sought to describe the clinical features and outcomes of this population.
Methods: Among ESEs performed between 2003 and 2022, patients without CAD by angiogram within 90 days of ESE and resting LVEF ≥50% with a ≥5% LVEF decrease during ESE were included.
