Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is an objective assessment of exercise capacity. It has become increasingly popular in clinical, research, and athletic performance settings. CPET allows for investigation of the cardiovascular, pulmonary, and skeletal muscle systems during exercise-induced stress. The main variable of maximal oxygen uptake (VOmax) reflects the gold standard measure of exercise capacity. This chapter will describe the method of performing a graded maximal CPET with the Vmax 229 Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing Instrument and CardioSoft program.
心肺运动试验(CPET)是对运动能力的客观评估。它在临床、研究和运动表现评估领域越来越受欢迎。CPET能够在运动诱发的应激过程中对心血管、肺部和骨骼肌系统进行研究。最大摄氧量(VOmax)这一主要变量反映了运动能力的金标准测量指标。本章将描述使用Vmax 229心肺运动测试仪器和CardioSoft程序进行分级最大CPET的方法。
