Evaluating the cardiac patient for exercise therapy. Role of exercise testing
Abstract
Several types of exercise tests and their use are reviewed. Suggestions are made for modification of tests to enhance their value in the counseling of normal individuals and patients with cardiac problems regarding occupational, recreational, and training activity. Also discussed are indications and contraindications to testing, end points in testing, and evaluation of test results.
