| Abstract |
Exercise stress testing is a non-invasive procedure that provides diagnostic and prognostic information for the evaluation of several pathologies, including arrhythmia provocation, assessment of exercise capacity, and coronary heart disease. Historically, exercise tests were directly supervised by physicians; however, cost-containment issues and time constraints on physicians have encouraged the use of health professionals with specific training and experience to supervise selected exercise stress tests. Evidence suggests that non-physician-led exercise stress testing is a safe and effective practice with similar morbidity and mortality rates as those performed or supervised by a physician. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 July 2014.
All research outputs
#17,604,528
of 25,806,080 outputs
Outputs from Critical Pathways in Cardiology
#142
of 387 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#207,932
of 323,266 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Critical Pathways in Cardiology
#2
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,806,080 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 387 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.2. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 323,266 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 6 of them.
