The prognostic validity of resting heart rate
 Positive association with total and/or cardiovascular mortality
 Association independent of other cardiovascular risk factors
 Association valid in both genders, in the elderly, in different
ethnicities
 A strong predictor of mortality in patients with coronary artery
disease
 Relation to known pathophysiologic mechanisms of
coronary artery disease
 Clinical outcome benefit associated with heart rate reduction

Putative mechanisms underlying
pro-atherosclerotic effect of increasing heart rate
 Increases the mechanical load on the arterial wall
 Induces structural and functional changes of the endothelial
cells making intima more permeable to circulating LDL and
inflammatory cells
 Promotes the weakening of the fibrous cap, leading to plaque
disruption and the onset of acute coronary syndrome
The prognostic validity of resting heart rate
 Positive association with total and/or cardiovascular mortality
 Association independent of other cardiovascular risk factors
 Association valid in both genders, in the elderly, in different

 A strong predictor of mortality in patients with coronary artery

 Relation to known pathophysiologic mechanisms of
coronary artery disease

Conclusions
 Heart rate is a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality,
independent of major conventional risk factors
 Heart rate should be used to assess cardiovascular
risk and to guide medical therapy of patients with
coronary disease
 BEAUTIFUL data suggest benefit from heart rate
reduction with Ivabradine in patients with coronary
artery disease and heart rate above 70 bpm
