Test–retest reliability of skeletal muscle oxygenation measurements during submaximal cycling exercise in patients with chronic heart failure

The potential purpose of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) as a clinical application in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) is the identification of limitations in O2 delivery or utilization during exercise. The objective of this study was to …

Muscle VO2 and forearm blood flow repeatability during venous and arterial occlusions in healthy and coronary heart disease subjects

This study aims were: 1) to assess forearm blood flow (FBF) and muscle oxygen consumption (mVO2) repeatability assessed with near-infra red spectroscopy (NIRS) during venous occlusions (VO) in middle aged healthy subjects and patients with stable …
