The many different approaches to exercise testing have hindered the consistent interpretation of hemodynamic, electrocardiographic, and ventilatory gas exchange responses. One of the most influential approaches is the choice of the exercise protocol. Recent data suggest that the protocol can have an important impact on test sensitivity, the reason for test termination, the ST/HR slope calculation, the interpretation of gas exchange responses, and the accuracy with which oxygen uptake is predicted from work rate. Recent recommendations for optimizing the test have focused on the test duration, reducing the increments in work rate, and individualizing the test relative to the purpose of the test and the subject tested. We describe a treadmill test which considers these recommendations for optimizing exercise testing.
