Sex Differences and Correlates of the Utility of the Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test for Prescribing Exercise at Entry to Cardiac Rehabilitation
Although most patients achieved V˙O<sub>2max</sub> or VT<sub>1</sub> on the CPET, females were 3 times less likely than males to achieve V˙O<sub>2max</sub> or VT<sub>1</sub>. Strategies to improve utility of CPETs for females, such as alternative exercise test protocols and investigation into underlying mechanisms for effects of depressive symptoms, should be conducted.
