Cardiac rehab beast 2 remix Flashcards
reading chart
30 squares=6 seconds
determine BPM
count QRS complex in 6 seconds and multiply by 10
Endurance
ability to sustain work for a requisite period of time to achieve skills
Components of endurance
- Central: 1. Pulmonary: Ventilation and Respiration
- Cardiac: cardiac pump and cardiac output
- Peripheral: 1. Systemic circulation: blood flow to muscle; arterial venous oxygen difference.
- Muscle: internal respiration (lactate) and muscle force
Positive ETT (exercise tolerance test)
positive for ischemia

Type (mode)
HR intensity
most common (70-85%)
significantly deconditioned patient (50-60%)
Phase 1 of cardiac rehab
Inpatient
ends when patient is ready to go home
low level exercise and education
Fairly light RPE
1-2 mets should increase HR 10-20 BPM
Phase 2 of cardiac rehab
Outpatient EKG monitored with supervised exercise
2-4 weeks after discharge
could last 3-6 months
Phase 3 of rehab
Outpatient with decreasing monitoring
maintenance phase
12 weeks or longer
health facilities
Phase 4 of rehab
community based
independent living
life long
Rate Pressure Product
HR x SBP
Beta blockers (LOL)
Decrease HR, BP contractility and Stroke volume
Calcium Channel Blockers (PINE and AMIL)
Vasodilate and relieve coronary artery spasm
ACE inhibitors (PRIL)
reduce peripheral resistance to lower BP
