Preferred Label : Volume.expired per minute/Carbon dioxide production W exercise:VRto:Pt: Patient:Qn:;
LOINC status : ACTIVE;
LOINC long common name : Expired minute volume/Carbon dioxide production during exercise;
LOINC short name : VE/VCO2 slope dur exercise;
LOINC description : The ventilatory efficiency slope is calculated as the ratio of minute ventilation
to carbon dioxide production. It is a proxy for peak oxygen consumption and is correlated
with disease severity for various cardiopulmonary conditions, including pediatric
pulmonary hypertension and adult heart failure. [PMID: 24144928];
