🔎 Study reveals a significant sex difference in achieving maximal oxygen uptake (˙VO2max) in CAD patients—89.7% of males vs. 71.3% of females. Females were 3x less likely to reach ˙VO2max or VT1. We need to explore alternative protocols and address the impacts of depressive symptoms on #CPET outcomes. ⬇️
