Abstract:
:Dobutamine stress echocardiography detects myocardial ischemia by inducing regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Augmentation of wall motion in hypokinetic segments has also been noted with low-dose dobutamine, suggesting myocardial viability. We report a case of regional ventricular improvement during high-dose dobutamine therapy, which may represent relief from myocardial hibernation or changes in regional loading conditions.
