In a three-year follow-up study, the majority of patients who received EECP therapy remained free of angina and showed persistent improvements in their thallium scans. Patients and their families have also reported noticeably greater ability to engage in daily activity. A change in the pain status and susceptibility, comportment, energy level and quality of life may be seen as soon as the tenth hour of treatment, but physicians typically suggest to patients anticipate a change after the half way mark, or 17th to 25th session. Improvement persists and continues after the treatment cycle has finished, and a final post-EECP evaluation may be undertaken 6 to 12 weeks later. If the patient is able to continue getting useful exercise, in addition to dietary and preventive medications and supplementation, many patients report ongoing improvements and a whole new lease on life.
