Testing a 6-minute arm exercise for heart disease patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a simple exercise test for people with coronary artery disease. You'll do a 6-minute arm exercise using a pegboard, and the researchers will check how well it measures your exercise ability.
