Abstract:
Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) refers to a method of measuring various indicators of the human body under gradually increasing exercise loads to objectively evaluate cardiopulmonary reserve function and exercise endurance. Currently, CPET detection systems primarily measure subjects' ECG, respiratory flow, oxygen (O 2), and carbon dioxide (CO 2) parameters. This paper introduces a non-invasive multi-parameter exercise cardiopulmonary function evaluation system that incorporates impedance cardiography monitoring. The system integrates impedance cardiography monitoring with conventional CPET detection parameters and detects changes in the hemodynamic parameters of the body during exercise, aiding in the evaluation of exercise capacity. Additionally, the system features a portable design with Wi-Fi wireless transmission, which enhances its applicability.

Exercise Stress Test
Exercise stress testing, commonly known as a treadmill test, is a noninvasive procedure used to evaluate cardiovascular function and diagnose heart conditions.
Definition
An exercise stress test measures the heart's response to exertion using a treadmill or stationary bicycle. Chest electrodes record the heart's electrical activity through an ECG, and blood pressure is monitored regularly.
Purposes
Electrocardiogram
Three major waveforms are present in a typical ECG recording: the P wave, the QRS complex, and...
