Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing
Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) allows the clinician to objectively evaluate symptoms and important functions. CPET also arms the investigator with a powerful tool to better understand the respiratory system role as an engaged participant of a fully integrated physiologic system in humans. The insights gained mean that CPET can aid in the assessment of activity limitation and dyspnea, i...
متن کاملCardiopulmonary Exercise Testing
Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is important for the differential diagnosis of dyspnoea-fatigue syndromes. The test more typically includes measurements of ventilation (VE), carbon dioxide output (VCO2), and oxygen uptake (VO2) at a progressively increased workload (W) until a maximum VO2, called VO2max or VO2peak to define aerobic exercise capacity, but steady state evaluations have ut...
متن کاملAssessing Exercise Limitation Using Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing
The cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) is an important physiological investigation that can aid clinicians in their evaluation of exercise intolerance and dyspnea. Maximal oxygen consumption ([Formula: see text]) is the gold-standard measure of aerobic fitness and is determined by the variables that define oxygen delivery in the Fick equation ([Formula: see text] = cardiac output × arterial-v...
متن کاملCardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in Pediatrics.
Aerobic fitness is an important determinant of overall health. Higher aerobic fitness has been associated with many health benefits. Because myocardial ischemia is rare in children, indications for exercise testing differ in children compared with adults. Pediatric exercise testing is imperative to unravel the physiological mechanisms of reduced aerobic fitness and to evaluate intervention effe...
