METHOD FOR SIMULTENIOUS DETERNIMATION OF MAXIMUM OXIGEN CONSUPMTION AND HUMAN TOLERANCE Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC A61B5/00 A61H1/00 A61B5/24 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: probationers exercise a step-test within 12 minutes, after which during 10 seconds of 1 minute of the rest pulse frequency is measured and maximum oxygen consumption is determined. Thereafter pulse frequency is measured during the first 30 seconds of the 2^d, 3^d and 4^th minutes of the rest according to formula in nominal units, where: IHT - index of human tolerance; W - exercises, which are made by probationers within 12 minutes per kg of body weight with predetermined parameters of the step-test, that is step height and frequency of insteps within 1 minute; f₂, f₃ and f₄ - pulse frequency for the first 30 seconds of the 2^d, 3^d and 4^th minutes of the rest according to which human tolerance is determined.

EFFECT: method ensures opportunity to determine maximum oxygen consumption and human tolerance within one exercise test.
