A MODERATE 500-M TREADMILL WALK FOR ESTIMATING PEAK OXYGEN UPTAKE IN MEN WITH NYHA CLASS I-II HEART FAILURE AND REDUCED LEFT VENTRICULAR EJECTION FRACTION

A moderate 500-m treadmill walk for estimating peak oxygen uptake in men with NYHA class I-II heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction

Abstract Background Maximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) is the gold-standard for cardiorespiratory fitness assessment in chronic heart failure (CHF) patients.However, high costs, required medical supervision, and safety concerns make maximal exercise testing impractical for evaluating mobility-impaired adults.Thus, several submaximal wal

Use of statistical reference method to improve flight safety

Statistical comparison as a test of hypotheses about the coincidence of distribution parameters Puzzle is considered.This allows defining whether the discrepancy in estimations of the distribution parameters of safety indicators is significant or can be justified by inessential changes in the conditions of the experiment-random drifts.Each adverse
