Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier event-free survival curves for hard events in patients with myocardial viability and ischemia (group 1), myocardial viability without ischemia (group 2) and no myocardial viability (group 3) during dobutamine stress echocardiography. Cumulative survival free of hard events was significantly lower (p < 0.05) in group 1 compared to group 2 patients, whereas the difference between group 1 and group 3 did not reach statistical significance.
