Symptom-limited treadmill testing is commonly performed on entry to cardiac rehabilitation (CR) for its prognostic value and to design a safe and effective exercise program. Normative values for this evaluation are not available. The primary goals of this study were to establish normative values for peak aerobic capacity (peak V(O2)) for patients entering CR and to create nomograms for conversion of peak V(O2) to a percentage of predicted exercise capacity,stratified by age, gender, and diagnosis.
