  • * P < 0.05 for comparison between resting and hyperemic studies on each hemodynamic measurement.

  • P < 0.05 for comparison between H215O and 82Rb scans on each hemodynamic measurement.

  • HR = heart rate (beats/min); SBP = systolic blood pressure (mm Hg); DBP = diastolic blood pressure (mm Hg); MAP = mean arterial pressure (mm Hg).

  • RB1 and RB2 represent 82Rb studies before and after dipyridamole administration; HO1 and HO2 represent H215O studies. Administration of dipyridamole significantly increased heart rate and systolic blood pressure. Heart rate of HO2 was slightly lower than that of RB2.
