In September 2023, Samsung Electronics and the University of Michigan Exercise & Sport Science Initiative (ESSI) initiated a research collaboration to investigate the potential of smartwatch technology in assisting runners with health and physical activity management through the provision of more dependable and precise data. The Michigan Performance Research Laboratory (MiPR), which is the primary research facility of ESSI, will be responsible for conducting an eight-month study that utilizes the Galaxy Watch series to assess the participants' VO2 max and sweat loss when they engage in running activities.
The study aims to analyze and contrast reference data1 with wristwatch data obtained from both indoor (treadmill) and outdoor running trials of varying distances, ranging from 2.5km to 20km. The Samsung and University of Michigan teams aim to utilize the study's findings to advance smartwatch technology, providing runners with more precise measures of their health parameters to address these concerns. Samsung selected the MiPR lab for this study due to its well-established connections in the wearable tech sector and running community, as well as the exceptional expertise of its experts. The ESSI MiPR lab has partnered with the University of Michigan Athletic Department, various professional sports groups, and industry leaders to extract significant insights from wearable technology that may be utilized in the field of sports and exercise.
In April 2022, Respira Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical-stage company focused on developing inhaled therapeutics for cardiopulmonary diseases, announced that the first patient in the United States has received a dose of its lead product candidate, RT234-PAH. This candidate is a dry powder inhaled treatment containing vardenafil, aimed at improving patient outcomes by targeting the small airways of the lung. The VIPAH-PRN 2b trial will involve two consecutive groups of participants who will receive RT234 as a single dosage through an Axial Oscillating Sphere dry powder inhaler for the treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and initial effectiveness of RT234 in improving episodic symptoms and exercise capacity in individuals undergoing treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class II-III symptoms. The commencement of this clinical trial signifies a significant achievement for Respira and is a crucial subsequent action in potentially providing patients with PAH a prompt remedy to alleviate their dyspnea, which hinders their ability to carry out routine tasks.
Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing Market Trends
- Growing Prevalence of Cardiovascular Diseases
The growing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure, and pulmonary hypertension among others across the globe is driving the growth of the cardiopulmonary exercise testing market. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing provides valuable diagnostic information and helps in determining exercise capacity and functional limitations in patients with these conditions. According to the article published by National Center for Biotechnology Information in June 2022, the test can provide both cardiac and pulmonary disease processes, while aiding in the development of individualized therapy and rehabilitation programs. Moreover, the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases can be attributed to various factors, including aging populations, sedentary lifestyles, smoking, air pollution, and unhealthy diets. As these diseases progress, they lead to functional limitations, reduced exercise tolerance, and impaired cardiopulmonary fitness. In this context.
The geriatric population is more prone to chronic diseases and adults aged 65 and older are more likely than younger people to suffer from cardiovascular disease. Aging can also cause a risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Thus, the increasing population of this section of people can also increase the demand for cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess an individual's cardiovascular and respiratory functions. For instance, according to the UN, by 2050, 1 in 6 people around the globe will be over the age of 65, up from 1 in 11 in 2023. According to the Rural Health Information Hub, in the US, the number of older adults aged 65 and older is expected to grow to almost 90 million by 2050. In addition, by 2030, 1 in 5 Americans is projected to be 65 years old or over.
Therefore, the growing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and other chronic diseases and increasing applications of radioisotopes in the healthcare industry are fueling market growth.

Moreover, governments in various emerging countries are also anticipated to boost demand by modernizing healthcare facilities.
Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing Regional Insights
By region, the study segments the market into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World. North America accounted for the largest market share of 37.77% in 2022 owing to the presence of active industry players in the region and the availability of the products propelling the market's growth in North America. Additionally, the region’s major growth is positively influenced by increasing incidences of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), which increase the demand for cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) software and CPET metabolic carts. The CPET metabolic carts and software are utilized in CVDs in order to offer an evaluation of the respiratory, cardiovascular, and skeletal muscle systems' integrated exercise responses. According to the American Heart Association, coronary heart disease was one of the leading causes of death in the US in 2020 and account for 41.2% of deaths, followed by stroke (17.3%), other cardiovascular diseases (16.8%), high blood pressure (12.9%), heart failure (9.2%), and artery diseases (2.6%). Therefore, increasing product launch to meet the demand of physician and patients are fostering the region’s growth.
