A computer program for the interpretation of exercise tolerance tests. 1986

M B Jaffe

A software package has been developed to interpret exercise test data recorded by a metabolic measurement cart (MMC). This package reduces and interprets the exercise test data relative to population and patient specific criteria. The data flow for the data reduction and report printing is described. The data structures used in this processing are illustrated. The application of structured programming, a real-time executive and an easy-to-read language--such as Pascal--is illustrated for the implementation of a medical instrument. Issues of prediction and interpretation relative to exercise testing are discussed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010101 Oxygen Consumption The rate at which oxygen is used by a tissue; microliters of oxygen STPD used per milligram of tissue per hour; the rate at which oxygen enters the blood from alveolar gas, equal in the steady state to the consumption of oxygen by tissue metabolism throughout the body.

D005080 Exercise Test Controlled physical activity which is performed in order to allow assessment of physiological functions, particularly cardiovascular and pulmonary, but also aerobic capacity. Maximal (most intense) exercise is usually required but submaximal exercise is also used.
