The test was useless...I got a clean bill of health: "Excellent performance quotient for a man his age," but the test missed a nearly complete blockage of the main trunk of the Right Coronary Artery.
A horrible waste of my time and effort!
Unless it's done with a nuclear isotope it's a bad test unless done merely for routine screening...IMHO. |
In response I would say the test was poorly admministered and their results are questionable due to incompetence.
I say that because it is not professional to insist someone to continue a test when angina or angina like symptoms are being experience. If the testing person is relying completely on the test output while the test is in progress, it is taking for granted the equipment is always accurately calibrated and functioning properly and that may be a mistake. Equipment does fail and requires timely calibration. Also, what defense would there be if a person takes advantage of the situation and says the test has injured them?
