[Ergometry in the diagnosis and prognosis of arterial hypertension].
Blood pressure is a dynamic parameter and stress testing constitutes a diagnosis and prognostic method, usually little used, but it lets you know if blood pressure control during exercise is correct. Several studies have demonstrated the predictive value of arterial hypertension when resting, when exaggerated blood hypertension exists during exercise. During the present paper last studies are reviewed about this issue in the world press. We can extract the following conclusions: Stress testing is useful, in general, for the diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic control of the arterial hypertension besides higher reproducibility and existing a good correlation between maximum blood pressure during exercise and the left ventricular hypertrophy.
