Basic of Cardio Pulmonary Exercise Test (CPET) Interpretation

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is the gold-standard approach in assessing CRF with an objective method and is probably the most comprehensive whole-body testing technique which allows the holistic evaluation of human body performance during exercise. The goal of this basic CPET interpretation webinar is to share the basic fundamental knowledge needed to interpret the gas exchange in relation with cardiac function parameters as measured by CPET and presented by the globally used 9 panel plot by Wassermann. This content of this webinar will help guide you to
answer numerous questions such as the ventilatory threshold, how the value can be
in relation to reference value but also, the possible limitations of CPET and how to
identify these limitations.
