• Explain the components of fitness and performance with reference to basic principles of physics and physiology.
• Explain the rationale of named test protocols and discuss the acute physiological responses to testing.
• Explain and use fitness testing equipment and apply the principles of quality assurance.

Patient Preparation
• Par-Q
• Written Informed Consent

![Page 13: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
VO2max Achievement Criteria
• A plateau in your VO2 with increased workload.
![Page 14: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
VO2peak Achievement Criteria
• HR within 10 beats of Max-est
• BLac of 8 – 10 mmol∙l
• R > 1.15
• Failure of VO2 to increase
– Based on estimate from last stage (inappropriate)
![Page 15: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Recovery
• Cool down – 3 to 5 minutes or when heart rate and blood pressure
has returned to recommended levels – keep subject moving and monitor condition – Be cautious, problems often occur during recovery
• Take rhythm strip at the end of each recovery minute
• Take blood pressure at 1, 3, 5 minutes into recovery – Note the condition of the patient and abnormalities on
the EKG monitor
![Page 16: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Recovery
• Verbally ensure the subject in doing well and has recovered from the test
• Disconnect the subject
• Advise subject – showering, – daily activity, – avoiding extreme temperatures
![Page 17: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
ACSM Absolute Indications
• Suspicion of a myocardial infarction or acute myocardial infarction (heart attack)

• Severe or unusual shortness of breath • CNS (central nervous system) symptoms
– ataxia , vertigo, visual or gait problems, confusion)
• Serious arrhythmias – second / third degree AV block, atrial fibrillation with
fast ventricular response, increasing PVCs, sustained VT)
• Technical inability to monitor the ECG • Patient's request (to stop)
![Page 19: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
ACSM Relative Indications

![Page 20: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
ACSM Relative Indications
• Pronounced ECG changes from baseline • >2 mm of horizontal or down sloping ST-
segment depression, or >2 mm of ST-segment elevation (except in aVR)
• Exercise-induced bundle branch block that cannot be distinguished from ventricular tachycardia
• Less serious arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) such as supraventricular tachycardia
![Page 21: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Interpretation and Exercise Prescription
• Calculate VO2max and METS. Determine: exercise training intensity heart rate, RPE, or METs
• Have physician interpret ECG recordings
• Consult subject – review test results – exercise prescription – monitor outcome and behavioural changes
![Page 22: Aerobic Exercise Testing Maximal laboratory measurement & estimation protocols.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bfaf1a28abf838c9d064/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Measuring or Estimating VO2max
• Measurement - values• Estimation• Males & Male CHD
– VO2max = 14.76 - 1.379 (T) + 0.451 (T^2) - 0.012 (T^3)
• SEE 3.35 ml.kg-1.min-1
• With Handrail Support– VO2max = 2.282 (T) + 8.545
• SEE 4.92 ml.kg-1.min-1

Estimating VO2max

Calculating MET equivalents
• 1 MET = 3.5 ml.kg-1.min-1
• Useful in exercise prescription and prognosis– http://www.exrx.net/Calculators/Treadmill.html
