Across
- 4. Calculates cardiac output from oxygen consumption and arterial-venous O2 difference
- 7. Rate of heart rate decline post-exercise, indicating fitness
- 9. Measures lung function, especially FEV1 and FVC
- 12. Peak expiratory flow rate for assessing airway function
- 13. Units of metabolic equivalents used to express exercise intensity
- 16. Portable metabolic analyzer for field VO2 and ventilation testing
- 17. Monitors oxygen saturation in the blood non-invasively
- 18. Reflex mechanism regulating blood pressure via heart rate
Down
- 1. Graphical representation of heart rate variability over time
- 2. Assesses orthostatic tolerance and autonomic regulation
- 3. Abnormal breathing pattern indicating cardiorespiratory stress
- 5. Evaluates integrated cardiopulmonary responses to exercise
- 6. Tests baroreflex and autonomic function using forced exhalation
- 8. Assesses autonomic balance via heart rate variability
- 10. Measures work output under controlled exercise conditions
- 11. Respiratory sinus arrhythmia reflecting vagal tone
- 14. Rates perceived exertion during physical activity
- 15. Maximal oxygen uptake indicating aerobic fitness level
