A comprehensive 5-part webinar series hosted by HDPN and presented by expert physiologist Jim Pate. Designed for Sport and Exercise Medicine (SEM) practitioners, this course bridges the gap between advanced cardiovascular science, testing methodologies (such as CPET), and their practical, real-world interpretation in clinical and athletic settings.
Part 1: CPET Demystified
Move beyond the jargon. Learn how heart, lungs, and metabolism speak to each other in plain language.
Part 2: Fit for Surgery?
Use CPET to quantify preoperative risk and build data-driven prehabilitation strategies.
Part 3: Cardiac Conditions & Rehab
From heart failure to return-to-play; identify safe limits and unlock cardiac reserve.
Part 4: The Science of Safe Exercise
Precision prescription for diabetes, obesity, and hypertension. No more “guessing” at intensities.
Part 5: Making Sense of the Numbers
A non-specialist’s guide to reading reports. Know what to action, what to flag, and what to ignore.
