Treadmill

Our hospital invested more than two hundred thousand yuan to purchase treadmills made in US, which are advanced equipment for ECG exercise stress test. Some asymptomatic patients with coronary heart disease can be detected through this test, so as to take early preventive measures and avoid the attack of angina and myocardial infarction.
 
 
The main purpose of ECG exercise stress test
(A) diagnosis
1. Used to determine or deny the presence of coronary artery disease, it is one of the most valuable noninvasive examination methods to diagnose coronary heart disease at present;
2. To identify the nature of dyspnea, whether it's caused by heart disease or lung disease;
3. To achieve early detection of instable hypertension;
4. And to determine exercise-related arrhythmia and the reasons why exercise causes symptoms.
(B) Evaluation
1. Evaluate the levels of cardiac function;
2. Evaluate the effect of medical treatment of coronary heart disease (antianginal therapy, diet therapy, weight loss, anti-arrhythmic drug therapy and digitalis therapy etc.);
3. Observe the hemodynamic responses such as heart rate, blood pressure and S-T segment changes so as to determine the severity and progress of patients' conditions;
4. Evaluate the effect of surgical or interventional treatment (such as coronary artery bypass graft and PTCA);
5. Evaluate the prognostic of patients with myocardial infarction;
6. Evaluate the patients' functional capacity, and exercise tolerance (exercise duration) so as to develop the basis for exercise prescription;
7. And to further screen cardiovascular examination.
(C) Rehabilitation exercise guidance
Completing the exercise test proves that the patients have a certain degree of functional capacity. That can inspire their confidence to return home and return to the society, playing a good psychological effect.
In short, exercise test has three main functions: to diagnose and determine the presence of coronary artery disease; to evaluate the degree of myocardial ischemia and prognosis; and to determine functional capacity and guide rehabilitation exercise training and work. Committee of Rehabilitation Experts of World Health Organization (WHO) holds the view that: "The main purpose of the exercise test is to determine the individual's response to certain exercise intensity, and through this information to estimate a functional state his life and work can achieve." Of course, it is not the sole basis for forecasting the cardiovascular reactions in life and work. When it comes to predict prognosis and the work and life the patient can adapt to, the medical history, clinical examinations and other special examinations must be taken as reference.
