What is the relevance of an exercise test?
Used to determine the main cause of breathlessness.
What is the link between exercise, cardiovascular system and respiratory system?
Cardiovascular: if the patient reaches their predicted maximum heart rate during exercise- indicates that the efforts of the cardiovascular system are limiting further exercise.
Respiratory: if the patient does not reach their predicted maximum heart rate before they cease exercise- indicates that ventilation efforts are limiting further exercise.
