Comparison of cardiopulmonary responses in obese women using ramp versus step treadmill protocols.

K J McInnis1, D S Bader, G L Pierce, G J Balady.   

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether individual ramp protocol treadmill testing is superior to frequently used step protocols in eliciting peak cardiopulmonary responses in obese women. The main findings indicate that protocol selection based on predicted pretest individual exercise capacity is more important than whether a ramp or step protocol is used.
