Respiratory maneuvers can uncover manifestations of myocardial ischemia. Some pulse wave characteristics are associated with significant coronary artery disease (S-CAD). An innovative test using the respiratory stress response (RSR) has been developed for the detection of S-CAD based on spectral analysis of finger pulse wave oscillations measured using photoplethysmography (PPG) during deep, paced breathing at a rate of 6 breaths per minute (0.1 Hz) for 70 seconds. We evaluated this test (RSR) as an indicator of S-CAD.
