title: [Standardizing clinical performance, data analysis, graphics display, interpretation and report for cardiopulmonary exercise testing].
abstract: The cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is one important clinical functional testing method, which linked to all functions of respiratory, circulatory, metabolic and neurohumoral etc. The most important parameter of CPET is oxygen uptake which can reflect the core oxygen metabolic information of the human being's holistic integrative physiology. We explain why the CPET interpretation needs new philosophy of holistic integrative physiology and medicine. CPET is a unique holistic, objective, quantitative scientific evaluation skill of human function to distinguish health, sub-health and dieases, It can help us to make optimal recommendations for prevention, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, treatment evaluation, exercise rehabilitation and prognosis of many clinical diseases. However, in order to so, we needs pre-qualified and calibrated stable system, standardized clinical practice, data analysis, display illustration and interpretation principle for CPET.
