Below are the hemodynamic and cardiorespiratory parameters to monitor during the tests:
In supine rest:
- ECG (electrocardiogram)
- HR (heart rate)
- BP (blood pressure)
- SYMPTOMS
Operating position:
- ECG
- HR
- BP
- SYMPTOMS
Warm up:
- BP
- ECG
- RPE (scale of perception of effort)
- SYMPTOMS
Test run:
- BP
- ECG
- HR
- RPE
- SYMPTOMS
Supine (diagnostic) or exercise (functional) cool-down:
- ECG
- BP
- HR
- SYMPTOMS
Standard * prognostic and diagnostic parameters to be extrapolated from the test to evaluate it before carrying out the exercise prescription:
- Shot volume
- Cardiac output
- a-VO2 diff
- Rate-Pressure Product *
- Wall stress
- Pulse Pressure *
- Ejection fraction
- End-diastolic volume
- End systolic volume
- Mean arterial pressure *
- VO2max *
- Pulmonary Ventilation *
- HRRS50-70 *
Spirometry test and other parameters:
- FEV1
- FEV1 / FVC
- FVC
- MVV
- VeO2
- FiO2
