Validity of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing for Assessing Aerobic Capacity in Neuromuscular Diseases
Objectives
To determine the content validity of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) for assessing peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) in neuromuscular diseases (NMD).
Design
Baseline assessment of a randomized controlled trial.
Setting
Academic hospital.
Participants
Eighty-six adults (age: 58.0±13.9 y) with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (n=35), postpolio syndrome (n=26), or other NMD (n=25).
Intervention
Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measures
Workload, gas exchange variables, heart rate, and ratings of perceived exertion were measured during CPET on a cycle ergometer, supervised by an experienced trained assessor. Muscle strength of the knee extensors was assessed isometrically with a fixed dynamometer. Criteria for confirming maximal cardiorespiratory effort during CPET were established during 3 consensus meetings of an expert group. The percentage of participants meeting these criteria was assessed to quantify content validity.
Results
The following criteria were established for maximal cardiorespiratory effort: a plateau in oxygen uptake (VO2plateau) as the primary criterion, or 2 of 3 secondary criteria: (1) peak respiratory exchange ratio (RERpeak) ≥1.10 (2), peak heart rate ≥85% of predicted maximal heart rate; and (3) peak rating of perceived exertion (RPEpeak) ≥17 on the 6-20 Borg scale. These criteria were attained by 71 participants (83%). VO2plateau, RERpeak ≥1.10, peak heart rate ≥85%, and RPEpeak ≥17 were attained by 31%, 73%, 69%, and 72% of the participants, respectively. Peak workload, VO2peak, and knee extension muscle strength were significantly higher, and body mass index was lower (all P<.05), in participants with maximal cardiorespiratory effort than other participants.
Conclusions
Most people with NMD achieved maximal cardiorespiratory effort during CPET. This study provides high quality evidence of sufficient content validity of VO2peak as a maximal aerobic capacity measure. Content validity may be lower in more severely affected people with lower physical fitness.
期刊介绍:
The Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation publishes original, peer-reviewed research and clinical reports on important trends and developments in physical medicine and rehabilitation and related fields. This international journal brings researchers and clinicians authoritative information on the therapeutic utilization of physical, behavioral and pharmaceutical agents in providing comprehensive care for individuals with chronic illness and disabilities.
Archives began publication in 1920, publishes monthly, and is the official journal of the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine. Its papers are cited more often than any other rehabilitation journal.
