Trusting the Treadmill Stress Test
Share This PagePrint This Page
Kenneth H. Cooper, MD, MPH, Founder and Chairman of Cooper Aerobics, was the first physician in Dallas to begin using the treadmill stress test as a way to determine cardiovascular fitness and identify possibly coronary artery disease. To date more than 100,000 patients have experienced the treadmill stress test at Cooper Clinic.
The treadmill stress test can yield more value than some high-tech tests. John Ho, MD, a cardiologist at Cooper Clinic explains it’s useful for assessing not only your heart health, but also your fitness level and autonomic tone—the ability of your nervous system to respond to stress by making appropriate adjustments in bodily functions, including heart rate and rhythm.
