Clinical exercise testing is an important tool in assessment of exercise limitation in COPD patients, in assessment of physiologic and psychological factors that contribute to exercise limitation, and in the differential diagnosis of cardiorespiratory disease. Further studies that examine the clinical utility of exercise testing are needed because there are currently insufficient data regarding the utility of many exercise variables.
临床运动测试是评估慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）患者运动受限、评估导致运动受限的生理和心理因素以及心肺疾病鉴别诊断的重要工具。由于目前关于许多运动变量效用的数据不足，因此需要进一步研究运动测试的临床效用。
