Cardiorespiratory fitness, workload, and the blood pressure response to exercise testing
Martin G. Schultz, A La Gerche (13357122), James E. Sharman
Abstract
<p>We propose that for correct clinical interpretation of exaggerated exercise blood pressure (EEBP), both cardiorespiratory fitness and exercise workload must be considered. A key recommendation toward achieving the correct clinical interpretation of EEBP is that exercise BP should be measured during submaximal exercise with a fixed external workload.</p>
