Principles of Exercise Testing and Interpretation

Now in its revised, updated Third Edition, this volume provides both the conceptual basis and the practical tools for using exercise testing as part of the cardiorespiratory workup. The coverage ranges from extensive discussions of the pathophysiology of exercise-limiting disorders, to testing protocols, normal values, principles of interpretation, clinical applications, and case presentations. This edition includes three new clinical chapters: training and exercise rehabilitation; diagnoses uniquely made by cardiopulmonary exercise testing; and clinical applications of cardiopulmonary exercise testing. It is part of the "Doody's Core Titles 2009."
