  • Title: Effect of percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy on postexercise breathlessness as determined by ventilation during recovery from constant workload exercise.
    Author: Tanabe Y, Ito M, Hosaka Y, Sato T, Ito E, Suzuki K, Takahashi M.
    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 1998 Nov 01; 82(9):1132-5, A9. PubMed ID: 9817498.
    Abstract:
    We evaluated the effect of percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) on ventilatory variables and dyspnea during recovery from a 6-minute submaximal constant workload exercise, and showed that the decrease in postexercise ventilation after PTMC was closely related to improvement in postexercise dyspnea after PTMC. Ventilation during recovery from submaximal constant workload exercise is related to postexercise breathlessness and can be used to assess the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions.
