This study examines sudden unexpected deaths in relation to strenuous exercise in the five years following the introduction of the Basic Fitness Test viz: 1978-82 and, by comparison with an identical study of the years 1968-77, shows that the annual exercise associated mortality rate rose from 3.5 per 100,000 before the Basic Fitness Test to 4.75 per 100,000 after its introduction. Sudden unexpected death in relation to strenuous exercise is rare, and its incidence has not importantly changed since the introduction of the Basic Fitness Test.
本研究调查了在推行基本体能测试后的五年内（即1978 - 1982年）与剧烈运动相关的意外猝死情况。通过与1968 - 1977年的同类研究对比发现，与运动相关的年死亡率从基本体能测试推行前的每10万人3.5例升至推行后的每10万人4.75例。与剧烈运动相关的意外猝死较为罕见，自推行基本体能测试以来，其发生率并未发生重大变化。
