These statistics are presented only in the hope that they may be interesting to some people. The word 'prevalence' of Insomnia usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Insomnia at any given time (i.e. people with Insomnia). The term 'incidence' of Insomnia means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Insomnia diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Insomnia).
Exercise Stress Test. 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.
The exercise stress test -- also known as an exercise electrocardiogram, treadmill test, graded exercise test, or stress EKG -- is used most often. It lets your doctor know how your heart responds to being pushed. Youâll walk on a treadmill or pedal a stationary bike. Itâll get more difficult as you go.
