Spiroergometry
Spiroergometry is a detailed assessment of the body’s condition during physical activity. This examination is the foundation of sports medicine because it provides us with precise results of the physical fitness of professional and recreational athletes. It is used to determine the level of sports preparedness, plan exercise in accordance with goals, and monitor progress.
By reviewing spiroergometry, we analyze the exchange of respiratory gases in every breath – at rest and under a certain level of exertion. The load is performed on a treadmill or a bicycle.
Who is it intended for?
The examination is intended for athletes, recreational exercisers, people planning to lose body weight, people who want an assessment of the health risks of physical activity, and for choosing an appropriate sports activity or sport, for adults and children.
What does spiroergometry include?
It includes measuring the anaerobic threshold of exercise tolerance that the athlete achieves and includes:
- general examination of the patient
- measurement of height, weight, and body fat percentage
- ECG and spirometry at rest
- exercise test on a bicycle or treadmill
Results of spiroergometry
This examination gives us the most precise insight into the condition of the patient’s body.
It shows us:
- fitness (endurance)
- the condition of the muscles and lungs
- the condition of the metapainic system
- pulmonary ventilation
- O2 consumption
- CO2 production
- heart rate
With the results of spiroergometry, we improve athletes’ training with advice based on the test results.
How to prepare for the examination?
- avoid food for several hours before arriving for testing
- bring comfortable sports clothing and footwear
- remove nail polish from at least one nail for oxygen measurement with a pulse oximeter
