Hx of MI, revascularization procedure, sudden cardiac death, etc.
CV risk factor: Smoking
Within past 6 months,
OR this with environmental exposure
CV risk factor: HTN

Taking HTN meds
*Measured twice
CV risk factor: Age
Males >45

Classification of Light Exercise
30-39% VO2 reserve
3 METS
Classification of Moderate Exercise
40-59% VO2 reserve
3-6 METS
“noticeable” increase in HR and breathing
Classification of Vigorous Exercise
> 60% VO2 reserve
6-10 METS
“substantial” increase in HR and breathing
VO2 at rest
3.5 ml/kg/min = 1 MET
Average VO2 max
35 ml/kg/min = 10 METs
Calculating HR/VO2 reserve
HR/VO2 max - HR/VO2 at rest
Criteria for maximal exercise testing
Use >50% total muscle mass
Be continuous and rhythmical
Prolonged (aerobic)
Standardized conditions
