  • Title: Exercise testing in cardiac rehabilitation. Role in prescribing exercise.
    Author: Graves JE, Pollock ML.
    Journal: Cardiol Clin; 1993 May; 11(2):253-66. PubMed ID: 8508451.
    Abstract:
    Graded exercise tests provide useful information for the prescription of exercise for cardiac patients. The responses to graded exercise depend on the mode of testing. The observed heart rate and electrocardiographic responses during graded exercise are used to establish an appropriate level or intensity of exercise at which the patient may participate safely. This article specifically addresses the role of exercise testing for the prescription of exercise in cardiac rehabilitation.
