Brief description/objective

Evaluation of cardiopulmonary capacity and work ability is often done by cardiopulmonary exercise testing under laboratory conditions. Mobile CPET devices allow measurements under specific real-life conditions, i.e.: at the patient's workplace. We investigated the feasibility and validity of mobile CPET in healthy controls.
