Question 1

result as i mentioned above, ie: mildly positive to ischemia?

Accepted Answer

Not sure: Please be more clear about your question.  If you're referring to an earlier question, please reference it.  If you had a stress test and the results were positive for ischemia, then you need to see a cardiologist for further evaluation, but that is the extent of advice i can give you with the limited insight I have in your problem right now.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Inferior WALL??: Could this be inferior wall ischemia?  If so, this refers to the inferior wall of the heart, i.e. Location (bottom) of the ischemia.  Ischemia indicates a lack of blood and therefore oxygen & nutrients to any part of the body, in this case the bottom of the heart.

Question 8

what is interval ischemia?

Accepted Answer

: With the limitations of having no clinical context and words being taken out of a report would read as ischemia or lack of blood supply that has developed over a time interval, most commonly seen in evolving strokes.

Question 9

what is reversible ischemia?

Accepted Answer

Poor blood flow: When arteries are narrowed, not enough oxygen gets to the tissue.
This is worse when exercising a muscle ( or heart muscle), becuause its oxygen requirement are increased. At  rest it might not be as much of an issue , because oxygen requirements are less.

Question 10

what are symptoms of ischemia?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It depends on the part of the body that is not getting enough blood and oxygen. If it is the heart you could get chest pain. If it's a leg, leg pain. If it's the brain you could get a stroke.
