Question 3

I'm planning to do a treadmill stress test soon, and I'm a bit nervous about what blood pressure and pulse rate levels are considered too high or too low during the test. Also, what does it mean if the test results come back as TMT positive or negative? I'm trying to understand what I should be looking out for.

Accepted Answer

During a treadmill test, the allowed blood pressure level is usually below 200110 mmHg. The allowed pulse rate can vary depending on age, but generally should not exceed 85% of the maximum predicted heart rate for the individual's age. A TMT (Treadmill Test) is considered positive if there is significant ST segment depression on the ECG during or after exercise, indicating possible coronary artery disease. It is considered negative if there are no significant ECG changes during the test, suggesting a lower likelihood of coronary artery disease.
