I am an exercise physiologist who performs vo2max tests on elite athletes, but it’s interesting to learn about the clinical part. In our discipline, a huge spo2 drop is normal (what spo2 sensors do you use?), and exercise performance is more related to muscle oxygen extraction, cardiac output, hemoglobin mass, h+ buffering
Can you explain your comments from time-point 8:39 - If declining VCO2/VE is associated increasing VD/VT, and declining VCO2/VE is a reciprocal of increasing VE/VCO2, should increasing VE/VCO2 not suggest DECLINING VD/VT? You said increasing VE/VCO2 suggests ‘increasing’ VD/VT which shouldn’t be if they are reciprocal and should have opposite effects?? I plugged in numbers to do the math and I found declining numbers as well? Thanks for clarifying.

This really helped me to understand parts of my CPET results. I feel better prepared for my first Pulmonary Specialist appt. next week. Thank you.

What causes a low VEmax?
I done CPET test,but I didn't found doctor who can understand results 😏

The whole discussion of VD/VT was poorly explained, terribly confusing, and a waste of time
