PWC Test
The PWC test can only be performed with a continuous HR
generator (HR belt, ECG, SpO2).
Three PWC tests are available.
The specified parameters are presented in the table in
chapter 13.6 on page 87.
In these tests, the load increases continuously step by step
until a predefined heart rate is reached. The level in which
the maximum heart rate is exceeded is maintained until the
end of the load interval. Then, the recovery phase is started.
Subsequently, the relative performance is calculated in
watts per kilogram body weight based on the defined heart
rate limits in the protocol type.
To correctly calculate the relative performance, the patient's
body weight [Weight] needs to be entered.
The relative performance can only be calculated when the
PWC test is performed until the patient reaches the maxi-
mum defined heart rate limit.
