Quest is designed to provide ECG information and data to qualified medical personnel for the purpose of assessing the patient's cardiac response to exercise. It is to be used in hospitals, clinics, or physician offices by a qualified and licensed physician, or by trained staff under the direct supervision of that physician.

Stress-test or exercise electrocardiography is used a) when the diagnosis of coronary artery disease is suspected, b) to determine the physical performance characteristics of a patient, c) for post myocardial infarction assessment, or d) for cardiac rehabilitation. The test involves the recording of the electrocardiogram during dynamic or, occasionally, isometric exercise. The diagnostic value of exercise testing primarily concerns either ST segment depression present in myocardial ischemia, or elevation seen in infarcts (in comparison to P-Q segment as the isoelectic line). In addition it is important to consider the patient's blood pressure response and physical symptoms. Disease assessment is most prominent in, but not limited to, adult patients.
