  1. HR
  2. SBP
  3. DBP
  4. ST segment
  5. heart block
  6. ventricular dysrhthmias

Q

How is upper and lower target heart rate calcuated using the Heart Rate Reserve (HRR) or Karvonen formula?
use 40% for low and 85% for high

A

Lower THR: [(HRmax-HRrest)x40%] + HR REST

Higher THR: [(HRmax-HRrest)x80%] + HR REST

17
Q

How is HRmax calcuated?

A

220-age

18
Q

What is 1 MET equivalent to?

A

1 MET is energy expended while sitting quietyly

AKA 3.5 mLO2/kg/min

19
Q

How is a Lower and Upper MET level established?

A

SAME THING AS KARVONEN OR HERAT RATE RESERVE (HRR)

Lower MET: [(METmax-METrest)x40%] + HR REST
Higher MET: [(METmax-METrest)x80%] + HR REST

20
Q

What are 3 major situations in which HR cannot be used to regulate intensity?

A
  1. After heart transplant
  2. patients taking beta blockers
  3. no exercise testing done prior to cardiac rehab
21
Q

An RPE of what corresponds to a 40-85% of max capacity?

A

12 to 16 (somewhat hard to hard) corresponds to 40-85% of max capacity

22
Q

What are appropriate RPE ranges early in rehab vs. later?

A

Early: 11 to 13
Late: 14 to 16

23
Q

Duration of rehab during

  1. the first month
  2. 3 to 4 months
  3. after 6 months
A
  1. 15 to 20 minutes
  2. 25 to 30 minutes
  3. 40 minutes or longer
24
Q

How many days per week during Phase II?

A

3 to 5 days

25
Q

METs

  1. walking slowly
  2. walking 3 mph
  3. walking 4 mph
  4. walking 4.5 mph
  5. jogging 5 mph
  6. running 7 mph
A
  1. 2.0
  2. 3 mph: 3.0-4.0
  3. 4 mph: 4.7 -7.0
  4. 4.5 mph: 6.3
  5. 5 mph jogging: 8.0
  6. 6 mph running: 11.5
26

  1. shoveling
  2. power lawn mowing
A
  1. 7.0

2. 5.5

27
Q

METS

  1. cooking
  2. bathing
A
  1. 2-3

2. 2-3

28
Q

METS

  1. light gardening
  2. sweeping, vacuuming
A
  1. 3.0-4.0

2. 3.0-3.5

29
Q

METS

  1. Basketball shooting around
  2. sexual intercourse
A
  1. 4.5

2. 4.0-5.0

30
Q

to maintain hydration in hot environments how much fluid should be drunk for each pound of body weight loss?

A

one pint of fluid

31
Q

Exercise in the cold can do what to the angina threshold?

A

may lower it

32
Q

Hypothermia is defined as a body termperature less than what?

A

less than 97 degrees

33
Q

The decreased atmospheric pressure at >5,000 feet reduces the partial pressure of oxygen in the air whihc has what result on arterial oxygen levels?

A

decreased arterial oxygen

34
Q

What is the immediate compensatory response to high altitude?

A

increase in ventilation and HR and decreased performance

35
Q

DO YOU ADD OR SUBJECT HR REST FOR THE LAST PART OF CALCULATING TARGET HEART RATE USING THE HEART RATE RESERVE OR KARVONEN FORMULA?

A

ADD HR REST
