The Modified Borg Dyspnea Scale (MBS) is a 0 to 10 rated numerical score used to measure dyspnea as reported by the patient during submaximal exercise and is routinely administered during six-minute walk testing (6MWT), one of the most common and frequently used measures to assess disease severity in PAH.
Q. How do you use the Borg scale of perceived exertion?
The Borg RPE Scale This is because it is designed to give you a fairly good estimate of your actual heart rate during activity. To do this, multiply your RPE by 10 to get an estimated heart rate. For example, if your RPE is 12, then 12 x 10 = 120 beats per minute. This scale was designed for the average healthy adult.

Q. How do you explain the Borg RPE?
The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale will help you estimate how hard you’re working (your activity intensity). Perceived exertion is how hard you think your body is exercising. Ratings on this scale are related to heart rate (how hard your heart is working to move blood through your body).
Q. What does the rate of perceived exertion scale measure?
The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) is a way of measuring physical activity intensity level. Perceived exertion is how hard you feel like your body is working.
Q. What is the Borg scale used for?
The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale, developed by Swedish researcher Gunnar Borg [1], is a tool for measuring an individual’s effort and exertion, breathlessness and fatigue during physical work and so is highly relevant for occupational health and safety practice.
Q. What is the importance of rate of perceived exertion?
Rating of perceived exertion (RPE) can help you measure how hard your body is working when you exercise. For most people, working at a moderate to vigorous level will help you get the most benefit from your exercise.
Q. What is the Borg scale?
Borg Scale. The Borg Scale (Borg 1982) is a simple method of rating perceived exertion (RPE) and can be used by coaches to gauge an athlete’s level of intensity in training and competition.
Q. What is rated Perceived Exertion (RPE)?
The Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale is based on a range between 6 and 20 , with 6 being the least amount of exertion and 20 being the maximum level of exertion. It was developed in 1982 by Swedish researcher Gunnar Borg to determine an individual’s level of exertion during physical activity. 4
Q. What is the RPE scale in exercise?
The RPE scale is used to measure the intensity of your exercise. The RPE scale runs from 0 – 10. The numbers below relate to phrases used to rate how easy or difficult you find an activity.
