Assessing maximal exercise capacity: peak work or peak oxygen consumption?

BACKGROUND Exercise capacity assessed by cardiopulmonary exercise testing is usually measured by peak oxygen consumption (VO2). However, not uncommonly, patients achieve a relatively higher work load (peak work) compared to their peak VO2. In these situations it is difficult to know which parameter to use in assessing exercise capacity. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there a...

Pediatric Exercise Testing: Value and Implications of Peak Oxygen Uptake

Peak oxygen uptake (peak V ˙ O 2 ) measured by clinical exercise testing is the benchmark for aerobic fitness. Aerobic fitness, estimated from maximal treadmill exercise, is a predictor of mortality in adults. Peak V ˙ O 2 was shown to predict longevity in patients aged 7-35 years with cystic fibrosis over 25 years ago. A surge of exercise studies in young adults with congenital heart disease o...

Kinetics of oxygen uptake at the onset of exercise near or above peak oxygen uptake.

We tested the hypothesis that kinetics of O(2) uptake (VO(2)) measured in the transition to exercise near or above peak VO(2) (VO(2 peak)) would be slower than those for subventilatory threshold exercise. Eight healthy young men exercised at approximately 57, approximately 96, and approximately 125% VO(2 peak). Data were fit by a two- or three-component exponential model and with a semilogarith...
