Overview

The recent upsurge in research on exercise testing reflects the growing interest of physicians in the subject, since ergometry can be used to assess functional capacity in patients and healthy individuals as well as in athletes. This study reports new findings and clinical experiences with ergometry. Essays describe the present status of exercise testing and how it can be be applied to various situations. Topics discussed include anaerobic test programmes, exercise testing with paraplegics, exercises for special clinical conditions, echocardiography and exercises for children.
