1 MET (metabolic equivalent)
|
Resting oxygen consumption is approximately 3.5 mL of oxygen per kilogram of bodyweight per minute.
|
|
|
Fick equation
|
The equation for oxygen consumption. Oxygen consumption (VO2) is a product of cardiac output (Q, or HR x SV) times the arterial venous difference (difference in the oxygen content between the blood in the arteries and the blood in the veins.)
|
|
|
Tests to predict VO2 max (maximal oxygen consumption)
|
Rockport walk test, the Step Test, and the YMCA bike protocol test.
