Determining the Best Ventilatory Efficiency Measure to Predict Mortality in Patients with Heart Failure

Ventilatory efficiency, the relationship between ventilation (VE) and carbon dioxide production (VCO 2), predicts mortality in heart failure patients, but its determination has not been standardized. Additionally, it is unclear if the prognostic power of ventilatory efficiency is independent of exer...
