title: An exercise testing program for large populations.
abstract: A demonstration cardiovascular evaluation and exercise testing program was assessed for feasibility, cost, and accuracy. More than 1,800 people were examined in three years. The conditions of as many as 55 people per day were examined at a cost of $60 to $70 each. Abnormalities uncovered were similar to those observed in other studies. The program was considered successful in rendering services conveniently at low cost and with accuracy.
