| Abstract
|
:
|
Maximum oxygen uptake during exercise is one of the best predictors of operative mortality and of prognosis in chronic cardiac or respiratory disease. Cardiopulmonary exercise (CPEX) tests are therefore an increasingly common component of pre-operative assessment and the management of patients with chronic cardiopulmonary problems. Part of the Oxford Respiratory Medicine Library (ORML) series. A Practical Guide to the Interpretation of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Tests guides clinicians through the parameters measured in CPEX testing so that they can understand the underlying physiology and are able to interpret the results. Clinical scenarios, common patterns, key points, and practical tips all make this book easy to follow and ideal for readers with all levels of knowledge. This practical pocket book is an essential reference for all clinicians involved in CPEX testing, including respiratory physicians, cardiologists, anaesthetists, and trainees in those disciplines.
