Dear
For the cardiac stress test
1:Step 1
Dertermin if the patient is capable to exercise or not ;
A: Patient is capable to exercise : Then dertermin if the ST-segment is isoelectric or not
---a: ST-segment is on the base line ---- Go for standard exercise test
---b: ST-segment is not on the base line --- Standard exercise test + perfusion scintigraphy or echocardio graphy
B:Patient is not capable to exercise : then
--Phramacological stress test (dobutmine ,dipyridamol or adenosine) + Perfusion scintigraphy or echocardiography
Best of luck

Generally,
1- EKG Stress test when patient's exercise is feasible and basic EKG is not changable in ST-T (primarily and secondarily as well) and must be narrow QRS before stress test.
2- The remainders is referred to Stress Echo-...
