Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test: Background, Applicability and Interpretation
Cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) has been gaining importance as a method of functional assessment in Brazil and worldwide. In its most frequent applications, CPET consists in applying a gradually increasing intensity exercise until exhaustion or until the appearance of limiting symptoms and/or signs.

متن کاملPreliminary investigation of cardiopulmonary function in stroke patients with stable heart failure and exertional dyspnea
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, perceived dyspnea, degree of fatigue, and activity of daily living with motor function and neurological status in stroke patients with stable congestive heart failure (CHF).This was a cohort study in a tertiary care medical center. Stroke patients with CHF and exertional dyspnea (...
متن کاملCardiopulmonary exercise testing in differential diagnosis of dyspnea.
Dyspnea is a common exercise-induced symptom whose treatment is often improperly because the pathophysiology causing the exercise intolerance is not well understood. The most important requirement for exercise performance is transport of oxygen to support the bioenergetic processes in the muscle cells (including, of course, the heart) and elimination of the carbon dioxide formed as a product of...
