Description

Miraç Öz Kahya and co-authors review exercise testing in older heart and lung patients in a 2026 study. The test, called CPET, tracks heart, lung, and body responses while a patient exercises. Doctors use it before surgery and to find why exercise feels hard. Proof of its safety in older people with mixed heart and lung problems is still thin.

The team looked back at 235 patients tested at a major referral center. Of these, 112 were 65 or older, letting the team compare older and younger patients. They weighed test results, how many finished the test as planned, and any bad events during testing. Such data help clinics judge whether the test is safe and workable for frail older patients who need it most.
