Abstract:The average oxygen uptake measured during the treadmill test was consistent with values measured during previously published studies on the aerobic demand of simulated fire-rescue work. The treadmill test required similar rates of air consumption compared to initial attack fire-fighting. The test demonstrated acceptable test-retest reliability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
