Main Features

High-precision Measurement

The "Sample Gas Transfer Time Automatic Assurance System" enables highly accurate measurements. Equipped with high-response O2 and CO2 sensors and a pneumotachometric ventilation meter, it continuously monitors ventilation flow rate, O2 concentration, and CO2 concentration on a breath-by-breath basis (with real-time display capability). This ensures reliable measurements without errors, regardless of exercise intensity.

Outstanding Operability

With one-click calibration and automated analysis features, accurate and reproducible data can be obtained by users of all skill levels, from beginners to experts. The previously cumbersome calibration process is now completed with a single click. Scale adjustments and parameter changes can also be made in real time during measurement. For determining the AT point, a key indicator for exercise prescription, the device provides automatic analysis support and triangular ruler visual displays, making it easy even for less experienced users to determine accurately.

Report Evaluation Based on the Latest Reference Values

The reference values used for evaluation in the final report are authorized for commercial use by the original authors and provide the only standard in Japan for assessing the exercise capacity of test subjects.
Reference Source: J Cardiology 2013:61:71-78
The individual values from the comprehensive report are compared and evaluated against reference values for healthy individuals, categorized by age and gender.
Reports Include:
・Dr. Wassermann's Standard 9 Reports
・Cpex-1 Original 3 Reports
・Exercise Guidance Report
・Nutrition Management Report
This system has been adopted as the practical training device for cardiopulmonary exercise testing at exercise prescription seminars hosted by JHC (Japan Heart Club).
