Validity of the VO2 Master Pro device for maximal oxygen consumption prediction and the measurement of resting metabolism
Goldschmidt, Tobiáš ; Nohel, Michal (referee) ; Chlíbková, Daniela (advisor)
Measurements of maximal oxygen uptake and resting metabolic rate are one of the most important things in testing athletes and madical patients. For these measurements are used breath analyzers. These analyzers are usually non-portable costly devices. VO2 Master Pro is on the other hand portable breath analyzer with much lower prize. It is biggest disadvantage is that it contains only O2 sensor and not CO2 sensor as madically aproved devices. Aim of this study is to determinate validity and difference of measurements between VO2 Master Pro and reference device for measuring maximal oxygen uptake and resting metabolic rate. Difference for measuring maximal oxygen uptake was 4,15 ± 4,41 %. For measuring of resting metabolic rate difference was 41,20 ± 11,44 %. For measuring of maximal oxygen uptake is VO2 Master Pro valid but for measuring of resting metabolic rate it is not. It was also confirmed, that size of measured value have non-linear corelation with size of difference in measuring maximal oxygen uptake.
