    Author: Bader DS, McInnis KJ, Maguire TE, Pierce GL, Balady GJ.
    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 2000 Mar 15; 85(6):767-70, A8-9. PubMed ID: 12000058.
    Abstract:
    Proper exercise test protocol selection is essential to allow adequate time for observation of subjective and physiologic responses to exercise, as well as provider-patient interaction and patient comfort. This study evaluates the accuracy of a pretest questionnaire in predicting exercise capacity for exercise test protocol selection and compares the accuracy of this questionnaire when ramp versus step protocols are used.
