Context The value of exercise testing in women has been questioned.Objective To determine the prognostic value of exercise testing in a population: based cohort of asymptomatic women followed up for 20 years.Design and Setting Near-maximal Bruce-protocol treadmill test data from the Lipid Research Clinics Prevalence Study (1972-1976) with follow-up through 1995.Participants A total of 2994 asymptomatic North American women, aged 30 to 80 years, without known cardiovascular disease.Main Outcome Measures Cardiovascular and all-cause mortality.Results There were 427 (14%) deaths during 20 years of follow-up, of which 147 were due to cardiovascular causes. Low exercise capacity, low heart rate recovery (HRR), and not achieving target heart rate were independently associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. There was no increased cardiovascular death risk for exercise-induced ST-segment depression (age-adjusted hazard ratio, 1.02; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.57-1.80; P=96). The age-adjusted hazard ratio for cardiovascular death for every metabolic equivalent (MET) decrement in exercise capacity was 1.20 (95% Cl, 1.18-1.30; P
