What Does ETT Stand For?
ETT stands for Exercise Tolerance Test
The Exercise Tolerance Test (ETT) is a diagnostic evaluation used to assess an individual's cardiovascular and respiratory response to physical exertion. During the test, patients engage in controlled exercises, typically on a treadmill or stationary bike, while being monitored for heart rate, blood pressure, and symptoms. The ETT helps physicians determine exercise capacity, identify potential cardiac issues, and guide treatment plans for patients with known or suspected heart conditions.
