PRESENTER: Clinton A. Brawner, PhD, ACSM-CEP, FACSM; Henry Ford Hospital; Detroit, MI
 
BRIEF SUMMARY
During this webinar we will discuss recent data supporting the importance of a maximal exercise stress test for patients participating in cardiac rehabilitation. In addition, recent data on current practices and perspectives relative to exercise prescription methods and the utility of maximal exercise tests among cardiac rehabilitation programs in the United States will be presented.
 
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Understand the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and outcomes in patients with heart disease.
2. Understand that change in cardiorespiratory fitness is associated with outcomes in patients with heart disease.
3. Understand the role of maximal exercise testing for the development of an individualized exercise training target heart rate.
4. Understand the various exercise prescription practices and perspectives towards maximal exercise testing in cardiac rehabilitation programs in the United States.
