Abstract：Objective We aimed to evaluate the application of ECG and ladder exercise test in physical examination for recruiting pilots and provide the basis of improvement of heart function test. Methods The results of physical examination for recruiting pilots in the period of 2005-2012 by ECG and ladder exercise test were analysed statistically and compared with each other. Results 300 candidates(accounting for 2.90% of the total candidates)were eliminated from 10 336 candidates by ECG, the top three abnormities were ECG axis deviation(accounting for 42.00%), arrhythmia (accounting for 39.33%), the change of T wave (accounting for 13.00%).221 candidates which accounted for 2.20% were eliminated from 10 036 candidates by the ladder exercise, and the first two abnormities were change of ST-T (accounting for 59.30%) and arrhythmia (accounting for 45.08%). Conclusion The ladder exercise increased the elimination rate, but the exercise load was insufficient and the exercise method was non-standard. The changes of blood pressure and arrhythmia were not detected timely during the exercise. The exercise treadmill test was suggested to further improve the ECG exercise method.
