The Added Value of Exercise Variables in Heart Failure Prognosis

Highlights • This study shows that peak VO2 , OUES, and VE /VCO2 slope are independent predictors of HF prognosis when analyzed in association with recognized clinical predictors. • Peak VO2 , OUES, and VE /VCO2 slope still add prognostic value when included with relevant clinical predictors of HF....

Description
Summary:Highlights • This study shows that peak VO2 , OUES, and VE /VCO2 slope are independent predictors of HF prognosis when analyzed in association with recognized clinical predictors. • Peak VO2 , OUES, and VE /VCO2 slope still add prognostic value when included with relevant clinical predictors of HF. • These exercise variables are equivalent in predicting prognosis when adjusted for clinical prognostic factors. • During submaximal exercise peak VO2 yielded equivalent predictive results to other submaximal exercise variables.
