Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Peak oxygen consumption at the end of cardiac rehabilitation is an independent predictor of long-term survival in patients with coronary heart disease.
In patient with CHD undergoing CR, END-peak VO2 is an independent predictor for long-term survival. Studies utilizing higher intensity CR programmes, with and without pharmacologic strategies, to increase peak VO2 to a greater degree in those achieving a suboptimal END-peak VO2, are urgently needed.
