Abstract:Objectives: We tested the logistic feasibility of integrating brief submaximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing (smCPET) in a pre-surgical evaluation (PSE) clinic. Design: Prospective open-label clinical device trial. Setting: Pre-surgical evaluation clinic. Participants: 43 participants who met criteria of i) age > 60 years old, ii) revised cardiac risk index of <2, iii) self-reported metabolic equivalents (METs) of >4.6 (i.e. ability to climb 2 flights of stairs), and iv) presenting for noncardiac s… Show more
