Lean tissue adjusted peak oxygen consumption in congestive heart failure.
We disagree with the comments made by Dr. F. James Brennan that major events were underreported in our recent Journal article (1). Although we used a composite end point that included death, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident and myocardial revascularization, we also separately reported mortality, myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization procedures and stroke (1). For exampl...

متن کاملCombining peak oxygen consumption and ventilatory efficiency in the prognostic assessment of patients with heart failure.
Exercise ventilatory efficiency (VE/VCO2 slope) and peak oxygen consumption (VO2) are strong mortality predictors in patients with heart failure and we combined these 2 variables' beta coefficients from Cox regression to investigate a new prognostic index. Average follow-up was 3.8+/-1.8 years for 355 patients (72% male, 51+/-10 years). The beta coefficients from peak VO2 (17.3+/-5.0 ml x kg(-1...
متن کاملDetermining the preferred percent-predicted equation for peak oxygen consumption in patients with heart failure.
BACKGROUND Peak oxygen consumption (Vo(2)) is routinely assessed in patients with heart failure undergoing cardiopulmonary exercise testing. The purpose of the present investigation was to determine the prognostic ability of several established peak Vo(2) prediction equations in a large heart failure cohort. METHODS AND RESULTS One thousand one hundred sixty-five subjects (70% males; age, 57....
متن کاملVentilatory and heart rate responses to exercise: better predictors of heart failure mortality than peak exercise oxygen consumption.
Better Predictors of Heart Failure Mortality Than Peak Exercise Oxygen Consumption To the Editor: We read with great interest the article by Robbins et al1 describing how exercise-related ventilatory and heart rate responses better predict heart failure mortality than peak exercise oxygen consumption.2 Although Robbins et al1 correctly state that other investigators have shown that exercise-rel...
