Σύνοψη	The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) Scale is a simple 0–10 (or original 6–20) numerical rating scale that quantifies a patient's subjective perception of dyspnea or general effort during activity or exercise testing. Developed by Swedish psychophysicist Gunnar Borg in the 1970s–1980s, the Borg Scale is ubiquitous in cardiopulmonary medicine, rehabilitation, and exercise physiology for monitoring symptom severity, guiding exercise intensity, assessing treatment response, and ensuring patient safety during testing and rehabilitation.	The Duke Activity Status Index (DASI) is a 12-item self-report questionnaire that estimates functional capacity—the maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max) a patient can achieve—based on their ability to perform common daily activities. Developed by Hlatky and colleagues in 1989, the DASI provides a non-invasive assessment of exercise tolerance and cardiovascular fitness equivalent to formal exercise stress testing, making it invaluable for risk stratification, treatment planning, and prognosis in cardiac and pulmonary populations.
