Prognostic value of stress echocardiography assessed by the ABCDE protocol
Treatments potentially titratable to ABCDE risk score
ABCDE + F (regurgitant flow) G (LVOT gradients) L (left atrial volume/function) P ( pulmonary and LV pressures) L (RV function)

"The current shift toward using SE protocols with both known and novel parameters is a new frontier. It will be interesting to observe the impact of SE 2020 in shifting practice. There has been a reluctance to “go with the flow” on this side of the Atlantic, but perhaps this will change with clear demonstration of feasibility and incremental value of a multiparametric SE approach, especially in women, who could benefit greatly from a noninvasive, nonionizing assessment of myocardial microvascular integrity."
