Ventilatory Response to Carbon Dioxide Output in Subjects With Congestive Heart Failure and in Patients with COPD With Comparable Exercise Capacity.

BACKGROUND: Patients with congestive heart failure or COPD may share an increased response in minute ventilation (V̇E) to carbon dioxide output (V̇CO2) during exercise. The goal of this study was to ascertain whether the V̇E/V̇CO2 slope and V̇E/V̇CO2 intercept can discriminate between subjects with...
