Prediction of Maximal Exercise Capacity in Obstructive and Restrictive Pulmonary Disease

We evaluated the predictive value of resting pulmonary function tests (PFTs) in the determination of maximal exercise capacity in patients with obstructive and restrictive ventilatory disease. We performed resting PFTs and an incremental exercise study on a bicycle ergometer in 146 patients with chr...
