Agenda, wednesday 17.10.2018 Dear Colleagues, 08:30-09:00 REGISTRATION over the past decades,clinical cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) has evolved into a reliable, comprehensive clinical and scientific tool in various fields of internal medicine for the quantification of exercise intolerance, for a differential diagnosis of unexplained dyspnoea, for risk stratification / pre-operative risk assessment, and for monitoring of therapeutic response. 09:00-09:10 Welcome and Introduction S. Baldus, D. Dumitrescu This three-day course, organized by CPX International, is intended to give a comprehensive overview of the physiological basis of exercise performance, the link between metabolic and hemodynamic changes during exercise, clinical evidence and applications of cardiopulmonary exercise testing, new developments in the field and practical, case-based learning. Last but not least, three Prizes will be awarded to Young Investigators for outstanding abstracts in the field of exercise testing. An experienced faculty of internationally-recognized experts in cardiopulmonary exercise testing will lead through the course, lab session and tutorials, and be available for questions and discussion. A world-renowned pioneer in the science and application of exercise testing, Professor Wildor Hollmann, will be giving a key note lecture on the roots and development of this method in Germany. All levels of CPET experience from novice to expert are accommodated. The course includes live demonstrations of cardiopulmonary exercise tests with different protocols, and several interactive tutorials in small groups. Participants are assigned to laboratory groups and tutorials according to experience and specialty interest, and will be able to familiarise themselves with the equipment and methodology involved in CPET. We cordially invite you to join the 21st European Practicum on Clinical Exercise Testing, and welcome you to the vibrant City of Cologne.
