Similarity between predicted and obtained oxygen consumption during incremental cardiopulmonary exercise test in healthy men and chronic heart failure patients
Abstract:Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) is a noninvasive method for assessing physiological changes during physical exercise. Functional capacity has been evaluated using prediction equations. However, this evaluation method may yield different outcomes when applied to a healthy male population and patients with chronic heart failure (HF). This study aimed to compare the estimated and obtained values of oxygen consumption (VO2) during CPX both at the ventilatory anaerobic threshold (VAT) and at peak exercise fo… Show more
