[On prospective applications of veloergometry in patients with myocardial ischemia]
Abstract:
Standardization of veloergometry for functional assessment of oxygen transport in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) was studied using cardiopulmonary complex Siregnost FD 88S (Siemens, Germany) and spiroveloergometry. Standard veloergometry protocol was applied for 30 healthy and 55 IHD males. The methodological approach and validity of application of standard veloergometry protocol in IHD patients are discussed. The regression equations for indirect estimation of maximal oxygen consumption by the time of action of the standard veloergometry protocol in healthy subjects and IHD males have been devised on the basis of the data obtained at linear regression analysis. The method provides an approximate indirect estimate of maximal oxygen consumption in the absence of gasoanalytical equipment.
