cardiovascular disease risk factors Flashcards
peripheral artery disease is caused by ______, resulting in _____
same process as coronary artery disease, reduction of blood flow to regions distal to the area of occlusion
PAD blood flow reduction creates a mismatch between
oxygen supply and demand
PAD blood flow reduction creates a mismatch between oxygen supply and demand causing
ischemia to develop in the affected areas
PAD severity can be ranked based on
presence of signs and symptoms or by the ankle/brachial pressure (ABI)
PAD treatments
CV risk reduction, exercise training, pharmacological therapy, and peripheral revascularization
PAD stage 1
asymptomatic
PAD stage 2
intermittent claudication
PAD stage 2a
distance to pain onset >200m
PAD stage 2b
distance to pain onset <200m
PAD stage 3
pain at rest
PAD stage 4
gangrene, tissue loss
PAD exercise testing can be performed to determine
functional capacity, to assess exercise limitations
time of onset of claudication pain
total walking time before and following therapeutic intervention
diagnose the presence of CVD and assess for other exercise safety factors
PAD frequency aerobic
min 3d/wk, up to 5
PAD frequency resistance
at least 2d/wk, non consecutive days
PAD frequency flexibility
> 2-3d/wk, pref. daily
PAD intensity aerobic
moderate, 40-59% VO2R, to moderate pain or 50-80% max speed walking
PAD intensity resistance
60-80% 1-RM
PAD intensity flexibility
stretch to tightness/slight discomfort
PAD time aerobic
30-45min/day, 12 week, can progress to 60min
PAD time resistance
2-3 sets 8-12 rep, 6-8 exercises targeting major groups
