stress test  
  心臓(しんぞう)負荷(ふか)試験(しけん)

(1) Noun, Phrase :

A stress test, sometimes called a treadmill test or exercise test, helps a doctor find out how well your heart handles work. As your body works harder during the test, it requires more oxygen, so the heart must pump more blood. The test can show if the blood supply is reduced in the arteries that supply the heart.


Examples

  • After the stress test on the treadmill, John's heart took a long time to slow down.
