Abstrakt: We derived maximal exercise heart rate (HRmax) prediction equations for patients with coronary artery disease based upon β-blocker (BB) use. For patients holding BBs on test day, an HRmax estimation equation, similar to those patients never on BBs, can be used, which is comparable to the Brawner (no BB)-HRmax equation.
