Ventilatory efficiency is a combination of the ventilatory-metabolic response stemming from non-invasive analysis of cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Despite being a recognized marker in exercise physiology, this measure presents considerable limitations, including the imprecise designation of "efficiency", broadly recognized, and recently denominated as "excess ventilation". Herein we present a detailed method, with substantial improvements, and new physiological insights, in order to better define the true ventilatory efficiency of the exercise, according to recommendations for physical/physiological processes.•"Ventilatory efficiency" of the exercise is a remarkable physiological index.•Several limitations are currently debated.•We report a new ventilatory efficiency index that match with recommendations.
