Abstract
Skeletal muscle fatigue occurs sooner in men with CAD relative to matched healthy men, despite similar muscle strength. This finding may be the result of an abnormality of skeletal muscle function and may play an important role in measuring functional capacity. In addition, it may be a useful tool to assess the efficacy of cardiac rehabilitation interventions.
