Exercise Echocardiography Registry for Ischemic and Non-Ischemic Heart Disease

Sponsor: Yonsei University

Summary

Exercise echocardiography is a widely used non-invasive test that evaluates cardiac structure and function during physical stress. It provides important information on myocardial ischemia, cardiac performance, hemodynamic responses, and exercise capacity in patients with a broad range of heart diseases. However, real-world prospective data integrating exercise echocardiographic findings across both ischemic and non-ischemic heart disease remain limited. This prospective observational registry aims to systematically collect clinical, exercise, and echocardiographic data from patients undergoing clinically indicated exercise echocardiography. The registry includes patients with suspected or established ischemic heart disease as well as those with non-ischemic cardiac conditions, such as cardiomyopathies, heart failure, valvular heart disease, and exercise-related symptoms. The collected data will be used to evaluate exercise-induced changes in cardiac structure and function, identify phenotypes associated with adverse clinical outcomes, and improve risk stratification in routine clinical practice. The registry is observational in nature and does not alter standard clinical care.
