A stress test uses exercise or medication to increase the
work of the heart while equipment monitors heart function.
A cardiopulmonary stress test is an exercise test using
either a bicycle or treadmill combined with a mouthpiece for
precise measurement of oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide
production.
This allows us to obtain extra information about how your
heart is working.
Duke offers various types of stress tests, including
cardiopulmonary stress tests and stress echocardiograms.
