Cardiopulmonary exercise testing in cardiac rehabilitation : From the reporting form to structured exercise prescription. A proposal from the Italian alliance for cardiovascular rehabilitation and prevention (Itacare-P)

© 2023 The Authors..

The cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) is the gold standard for the diagnostic evaluation of exercise intolerance, as for individualized prescription of structured physical training. Exercise is a core component of cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation activites, but unfortunately the limited availability of CPET-derived informations often leads to unpowered program's prescription in real life. The Italian Alliance for Cardiovascular Rehabilitation and Prevention (ITACARE-P) has developed a CPET reporting form specifically oriented to exercise prescription, in order to facilitate interventions on lifestyle and during phase II/phase III cardiac rehabilitation programmes. The ITACARE-P CPET reporting form includes a limited number of key variables for clinical practice and individual domains of exercise intensity, suitable both for threshold-based and range-based aerobic training protocols. The adoption of the ITACARE-P CPET reporting form could improve non-pharmacological intervention in preventive cardioloy and facilitate collaborative research on physical training within the network of cardiac rehabilitation facilities.
