17
Q

Benefits of Exercise / Effects of Immobility on Cardiovascular System

A

Benefits: increase efficiency of heart, decrease resting heart rate and blood pressure, increase blood flow and oxygenation of all body parts

Effects: increase cardiac workload, increase risk for orthostatic hypotension, increase risk for venous thrombosis

18
Q

Benefits of Exercise / Effects of Immobility on Respiratory System

A

Benefits: increase depth, increase RR, increase gas exchange at alveolar level, increase rate of CO2 excretion

Effects: decrease depth, decrease RR, pooling of secretions, impaired gas exchange

19
Q

Benefits of Exercise / Effects of Immobility on Gastrointestinal System

A

Benefits: increase appetite, increase intestinal tone

Effects: disturbance in appetite, altered protein metabolism, altered digestion and utilization of nutrients, decrease peristalsis

20
Q

Benefits of Exercise / Effects of Immobility on Urinary System

A

Benefits: increase blood flow to kidneys, increase efficiency in maintaining fluid and acid-base balance, increase efficiency in excreting body wastes

Effects: increase urinary stasis, increase risk for renal calculi, decrease bladder muscle tone

21
Q

Benefits of Exercise / Effects of Immobility on Musculoskeletal System

A

Benefits: increase muscle efficiency, increase coordination, increase efficiency of nerve impulse transmission

Effects: decrease muscle tone, size, and strength, decrease joint mobility and flexibility, bone demineralization, decrease endurance and stability, increase risk for contracture formation

22
Q

Benefits of Exercise / Effects of Immobility on Metabolic System

A

Benefits: increase efficiency of metabolic system, increase efficiency of body temp regulation

Effects: increase risk for electrolyte imbalance, altered exchange of nutrients and gases

23
Q

Benefits of Exercise / Effects of Immobility on Integumentary System

A

Benefits: improved tone, color, turgor resulting from improved circulation

Effects: increase risk for skin breakdown and formation of pressure injuries

24
Q

Benefits of Exercise / Effects of Immobility on Psychological Well-Being

A

Benefits: energy, vitality, general well-being, improved sleep, improved appearance, improved self-concept, positive health behaviors

Effects: increase sense of powerlessness, decrease self-concept, decrease social interaction, decrease sensory stimulation, altered sleep-wake patterns, increase risk for depression, risk for learned helplessness

25
Q

Activity Intolerance

A

related to fatigue, generalized weakness, and excretional discomfort

26
Q

Impaired Transfer Ability

A

related to pain and musculoskeletal impairment

27
Q

Risk for Injury

A

related to altered sensation, unsteady gait, and confusion
