CPET Metabolic Cart
ONE METABOLIC CART. EVERYTHING FROM A SINGLE SOURCE.
The complete CPET metabolic cart from a single source: ergometer, 12-lead ECG, METALYZER® 3B or METAMAX® 3B, PC, and software.
CORTEX supplies more than the CPET alone. On request, we put together the complete CPET metabolic cart.
From the ergometer (bicycle or treadmill) and the 12-lead ECG to the measurement PC, monitors, and equipment cart. All components are matched to each other and controlled centrally from MetaSoft® Studio.
And no two metabolic carts are alike: we configure ergometer, ECG, and equipment individually based on field of use, room, and existing devices. Our consultants are happy to support you with planning and selection.

Mask with flow sensor
CORTEX mask in multiple sizes, with a flow sensor directly on the mask.
Ergometer
Cadence-independent and software-controlled, as a bicycle ergometer or treadmill; load profiles run automatically.
MetaSoft® Studio software
The evaluation software controls the entire test workflow and delivers protocols, the 9-panel plot, and the report.

On request, we add a 12-lead stress ECG to the metabolic cart, bidirectionally synchronized with the CPET, with either adhesive or suction electrodes. An existing ECG system can also be connected.
CPET measuring unit
METALYZER® 3B or METAMAX® 3B with Breath-by-Breath gas analysis, fully controlled from the software.

Individually configurable
MetaSoft® Studio
Reliably connected
An examination runs only as smoothly as the software behind it. MetaSoft® Studio controls the entire test workflow, from load protocol to connected devices to test report.
Every measurement is preserved as a raw data set and remains traceable. You focus on the examination while the technology works in the background.
Whether in the lab, in the practice, or in the field: it is the same software with the same workflow, and all results land in the same evaluation.
