1. Assessment of Aerobic Capacity A Novel Rating Scale and Further Development of an Exercise Test including Analysis of Gas Exchange
Sammanfattning : Different methods are proposed to assess the aerobic capacity. A novel scale, rating of perceived capacity (RPC) based on metabolic equivalents (METs) from 1 to 20, is presented. Selected MET values are linked to physical activities. LÄS MER
2. Validity and reliability of a submaximal cycle ergometer test for estimation of maximal oxygen uptake
Sammanfattning : Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) is the highest obtained rate of oxygen consumption during a physically intense dynamic whole-body activity. VO2max is an important factor for many types of physical performance, as well as a strong independent predictor of health and longevity. LÄS MER
3. Physical Fitness and Pregnancy
Sammanfattning : Objectives To assess physical fitness in pregnancy and to evaluate its effect on perceived health, back pain, blood pressure and duration of gestation. Also, to evaluate the effect of serum relaxin levels on blood pressure and duration of gestation. LÄS MER
4. Exercise Testing in Firefighters : Work Capacity and Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in a Low-Risk Population
Sammanfattning : Background. Firefighting is one of the most physically demanding occupations and it requires a high cardiorespiratory fitness level. LÄS MER
5. Methods for analysis of heart function
Sammanfattning : There is a continuous demand for improvements in methods foranalysis of heart function. This thesis investigates both themeasurement of left ventricular (LV) volume for evaluating theheart function and the exercise electrocardiographic (ECG) testfor diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD).
