Registration Number
NCT07130968
Lead Sponsor
Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital
Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to observe the characteristics of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) parameters in patients across different cardiovascular diseases and to evaluate the predictive value of multiparameter cardiopulmonary indices for 5-year major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).

Detailed Description

To investigate the CPET characteristics in patients with various cardiovascular diseases (including acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, valvular heart disease, coronary artery disease, and perioperative cardiac surgery), with annual follow-up of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) for five years, and to establish the predictive value of combined CPET parameters for MACE in this population

Characteristics of CPET parameters across different cardiovascular diseases.After enrollment

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) was performed using exercise cardiopulmonary testing systems from VYAIRE (Germany) and SCHILLER (Switzerland). A symptom-limited maximal exercise test with a 1-minute ramp incremental protocol (Ramp protocol) was adopted, designed to complete the workload test within 8-12 minutes according to the incremental power calculation formula.

The incremental workload was calculated as follows:

Unloaded VO₂ (ml/min) per minute = 150 + (6 × body weight) Predicted peak VO₂max (ml/min) per minute for males = (height in cm - age in years) × 20 Predicted peak VO₂max (ml/min) per minute for females = (height in cm - age in years) × 14 Incremental power per minute = (predicted peak VO₂max - unloaded VO₂)/100

During exercise, real-time cardiopulmonary parameters were collected, including peak oxygen uptake (VO₂peak), anaerobic threshold (AT), maximal cycling workload, respiratory rate, minute ventilation (VE), and ventilatory efficiency, among others.
