During a gradually increasing exercise test heart rates were determined in healthy animals and in 2 groups of sick horse. These included 31 animals with a chronic pulmonary disorder and 5 with chronic heart disease. The alteration in heart rate was correlated with the clinical signs exhibited. In the horses with lung disease there was a close correlation between the stage of the diseases and the heart rate during the exercise test. In 3 animals with heart valve disease there was no apparent difference in heart rate compared with healthy horses. On the other hand the exercising heart rate of horses with atrial fibrillation showed a significant increase. The recovery rate of pulse and respiration after a 20 min trot did not show any correlation with the stage of disease or the pulse and respiration after a 20 min trot did not show any correlation with the stage of disease or the results of gradually stepping up the exercise in horses with lung disease.
在一项逐渐增加运动量的运动试验中，测定了健康动物以及两组患病马匹的心率。其中一组包括31只患有慢性肺部疾病的动物，另一组有5只患有慢性心脏病的动物。心率变化与所表现出的临床症状相关。在患有肺部疾病的马匹中，疾病阶段与运动试验期间的心率密切相关。在3只患有心脏瓣膜疾病的动物中，与健康马匹相比，心率没有明显差异。另一方面，患有心房颤动的马匹运动时心率显著增加。在20分钟小跑后，脉搏和呼吸的恢复率与疾病阶段没有任何关联，或者说在患有肺部疾病的马匹中，20分钟小跑后的脉搏和呼吸与疾病阶段以及逐渐增加运动量的结果没有任何关联。
