A New Sign in medicine: the Tim Russert sign

Posted by GruntDoc on 14th June 2008

Mr. Russert has a negative stress test on April 19th and died suddenly of a heart attack on June 13th.

I therefore propose a new sign in medicine, the Tim Russert sign: death (or MI) shortly after a negative stress test.
