A practical approach to cardiopulmonary exercise testing: from functional evaluation to adapted exercise prescription
Recommendations
As issued by the authors
A systematic method for interpreting Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET): aerobic/exercise capacity, then ventilatory, CV, cardiorespiratory gas-exchange and muscular-metabolic responses to exercise, with attention to post-exercise recovery and novel parameters
Better implementation of CPET for prognostic evaluations and in diagnostic pathways; strategies for integrating CPET into routine care pathways
Use CPET outcomes to tailor exercise prescription to identified functional limitations and adjust exercise intensity using physiological and pathological thresholds for patients and athletes
