“…Also, great heterogeneity among nationalities has been demonstrated,14,22 probably due to different demographic and biopsychosocial characteristics. In Brazil, reference values for V˙ o 2peak on a treadmill have been described in four regions: South,17 Southeast,18 Midwest,21 and Northeast 19. As observed in North American regions from the FRIEND-I study,14 regional differences in Brazil can be expected as well, considering the significant population variations among an extensive geographic territory.…”

“…If considered only individuals ≥80 years, this study found higher averages: 24.6 ml/kg/min (men) e 24.4 ml/kg/min (women). Using cardiopulmonary stress test (CST), Almeida et al [17] evaluated 103 individuals with more than 70 years old, without cardiac disease, and found average values of 22.06 ± 4.7 ml/kg/min (men) and 17.41 ± 3.7 ml/kg/min (women) in the 70-79 group; and 19.20 ± 3.4 ml/kg/min (men) e 16.56 ± 2.9 ml/kg/min (women) for the ≥80 years old group. The VO2max averages presented here are higher, and this could be explained by method differences, reported by Lima et al [30], who found that calculated VO2max is overestimated by 15-38% when compared to measured VO2max in a CST.…”

“…FC can be affected by aging due to myocardial, blood vessels, and metabolic impairments in the presence or absence of detectable cardiovascular disease. The gold standard for FC assessment is the cardiopulmonary exercise test, with direct determination of maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) [16,17]. FC can also be assessed in advanced elderly with a safe, effective, and wellestablished method; the conventional exercise test (ET), which safeguarded protocols and interpretation, can help to detect diseases, monitor cardiovascular conditions, promote exercise, and reduce the sedentary time for the oldest-old adults [15,[18][19][20][21][22].…”

Oldest-old adults are expected to represent 4.8% of the world population in 2030 (400 million). Aging influences functional capacity (FC), which is relevant information for this subpopulation and can be assessed by maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) with a conventional exercise test (ET). Exercise-based programs for advanced older adults could improve health status and multiple studies support resistance training as an important option. An observational, retrospective study on FC assessment, with VO2max assessment, in the oldest-old adults, is presented. Eighty-six individuals, ≥75 years old, were included. FC was estimated by VO2max obtained with treadmill ET. Two groups with different FC were compared (A group: <24 mg/kg/min and B group: ≥24 mg/kg/min). Most important differences were found in body mass index and heart rate, with a correlation between these variables and both with VO2max. These findings can help the oldest-old adults’ health care, once exercise programs provide multiple benefits for this subpopulation improving these specific variables, and other clinical aspects. Pre-participation assessment could promote safety, comfort, adherence, and effectiveness in advanced older adults. Exercise programs, including resistance training, impact quality of life, cognitive status, frailty symptoms, risk factors, and all-cause mortality.

Fundamento: Os dados mais utilizados como referência de aptidão cardiorrespiratória (ACR) são os de Cooper, que utiliza valores calculados de captação máxima de oxigênio (VO 2 máx). Objetivo: Desenvolver valores de ACR a partir do teste cardiopulmonar de exercício (TCPE) em uma população brasileira com alto nível socioeconômico e livre de cardiopatia estrutural. Os resultados dos testes de VO 2 max foram comparados aos dados de Cooper e do FRIEND Registry. Métodos: Foram utilizados neste estudo dados de TCPE de indivíduos consecutivos entre 1º de janeiro de 2000 e 31 de maio de 2016. Os critérios de inclusão foram: VO 2 máx pré-definido. Foi construído um gráfico de ACR de acordo com os percentuais do VO 2 máx: muito ruim (≤20%), ruim (20-40%), regular (40-60%), boa (60-80%), excelente (80-90%), e superior (≥90%). A correlação Kappa foi usada para analisar nossos dados em comparação aos dados dos outros dois bancos de dados. Os testes estatísticos com p<0,005 foram considerados significativos. Resultados: A coorte final incluiu 18.186 testes: 12.552 homens, 5.634 mulheres (7 a 84 anos). A resposta mais recorrente foi "boa" (20,2%). Houve diferença média de peso, altura, índice de massa corporal (IMC) e idade no gráfico da ACR. Houve correlação inversa entre VO 2 máx e idade, peso e IMC. Usando uma regressão linear e essas variáveis, uma equação preditiva foi desenvolvida para o VO 2 máx. Nossas descobertas diferiram das dos outros bancos de dados. Conclusão: Desenvolvemos uma classificação para a ACR e encontramos valores mais altos em todas as faixas de classificação de capacidade funcional, em contraste com os dados de Cooper e do FRIEND Registry. Nossos achados oferecem uma interpretação mais precisa da ACR nessa grande amostra populacional brasileira, quando comparados aos padrões anteriores, com base no VO 2 máx estimado.
