Testing the feasibility of a clinic-based assessment of exercise-induced maximum heart rate and heart rate recovery in adults without cardiovascular disease
Recruiting
We want to explore whether it is possible for adults without symptoms of heart disease to perform a short, high intensity exercise routine in a clinic setting in order to measure maximum heart rate and heart rate recovery. If this method is successful, it could be used by patients and clinicians to estimate and track heart health over time.
