Cardiac Stress Testing


The Cardiac Stress test (also called cardiopulmonary resuscitation test, cardiopulmonary exercise test, or abbreviated CPX test) is a cardiac test that measures the ability of the heart to respond to external stress in a controlled clinical setting. The stress response is due to exercise or rehabilitation.



Cardiopulmonary resuscitation compares the circulation of blood when a patient is at rest with the circulation of the same patient during cardiac activity, showing any abnormal blood flow to the myocardium (heart muscle). The results can be interpreted as indicating the general physical condition of the patient being tested. These tests can be used to diagnose coronary artery disease (also known as ischemic heart disease) and to evaluate a patient's prognosis after myocardial infarction (heart attack).
