Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) assessments are essential to the diagnosis and outpatient monitoring in patients with cardiopulmonary conditions, particularly heart failure. The cardiopulmonary exercise test is the gold standard for measuring CRF, including in hear failure, and is endorsed by multiple societal guidelines. Data derived from the cardiopulmonary exercise tests provide robust risk assessment and predictive insight into the outcomes of people with heart failure. In this webinar, Jeroen Molinger, PhD, will discuss using wireless sensor technology to conduct cardiopulmonary exercise tests. This technology can enhance field tests that can be applied at point-of-care and provide sufficient information on cardiopulmonary health. 

Key Learning Objectives:   

• Outline of current cardiopulmonary exercise tests. 
• Introduction cardiopulmonary exercise tests 2.0 
• New sensors metrics for cardiopulmonary exercise tests
