Contribution of peak respiratory exchange ratio to peak VO2 prognostic reliability in patients with chronic heart failure and severely reduced exercise capacity.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:We evaluated the influence of peak respiratory exchange ratio (pRER), as an index of effort adequacy, on peak VO2 prognostic reliability in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and reduced exercise capacity, whose peak VO2 may be underestimated because of poor patient motivation. METHODS:A cardiopulmonary exercise test was performed in 570 patients with CHF (age 60 +/- 10 years, ejection fraction 26% +/- 7%, New York Heart Association class 2.2 +/- 0.6), 193 of whom had a peak VO2 that was >10 but 10 but or=1.15 had a 2-year survival rate of 52%, and this pRER value (but not >or=1, >or=1.05, or >or=1.10) was the only independent predictor of the composite end point (chi(2) = 4.73, P =.03). Conversely, in the group of patients with a peak VO2 10 but
