Q

What is the estimated figure for absolute risk of cardiac death during vigorous intensity physical activity in asymptomatic individuals

A

1 in 15000/18000 per year

20
Q

In recent research it has been seen that adults are showing ______ compared to their younger counterparts

A

Increased rate of sudden cardiac death and acute MI

21
Q

Prevention of exercise related cardiac events includes

A

Health care professional knowledge on the pathologic conditions associated with exercise related events

Physically active individuals should know the nature of cardiac prodromal symptoms and seek medical care if symptoms develop

High school and college athletes should undergo preparticipation screening

Athletes with known cardiac conditions/family history should be evaluated before competition

Health care facilities should make sure staff are trained in managing cardiac emergencies

Physically active individuals should modify their exercise program in response to their environment, activity level and exercise capacity

22
Q

What are the ABSOLUTE contraindictions to exercise testing

A

Significant change in resting ECG

Unstable angina

Uncontrolled cardiac dysrhythmias

Symptomatic severe aortic stenosis

Uncontrolled symptomtic heart failure

Acute pulmonary embolus or pulmonary infarction

Acute myocarditis or pericarditis

Aneurysm

Acute systemic infection

23
Q

What does asymptomatic individuals mean

A

Have no symptoms but may carry it

24
Q

Significant changes in ECG can be because of

A

Ischemia
Recent MI
Acute cardiac event

25
Q

What is angina

A

Chest pain

26
Q

What is aortic stenosis

A

Narrowing and building resistance of the aorta

Valve does not work well

27
Q

What is a pulmonary embolus

A

Blockage of the main artery in the lung

28
Q

What is myocarditis and pericarditis

A

Inflammation of the myocardium and pericardium

29
Q

What is an aneurysm

A

Blood filled balloon in the wall of a blood vessel

30
Q

Patients with absolute contraindications should…

A

NOT perform exercise testing until conditions are controlled/treated

Only need to have one of the problems

31
Q

What are the RELATIVE contraindications to exercise testing

A

Left main coronary artery stenosis

Moderate stenotic valvular heart disease

Electrolyte abnormalilites

Severe artieral hypertension

Tachydysrhythmia or bradydysrhythmia

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Neuromotor, musculoskeletal, or rheumatoid disorders that are exacerbated by exercise

High-degree atrioventricular block

Ventricular aneurysm

Uncontrolled metabolic disease (e.g., diabetes, thyrotoxicosis, or myxedema)

Chronic infectious disease (e.g., HIV)

Mental or physical impairment leading to inability to exercise adequately

32
Q

Patients with relative contraindications…

A

May be tested only after careful evaluation of the risk benefit ratio

33
Q

Severe arterial hypertension is if…

A

Systolic BP is > 200mmHG

and/or

Diastolic BP of > 110mmHG

34
Q

Exercise physiology studies how the body’s structures and functions are altered when exposed to acute and chronic bouts of exercise

35
Q

______ response in exercise physiology is described as how the body responds to an individual bout of physical activity

36
Q

We say “there is a dose response relationship” when the effect is seen as a response to increases in dose of treatment

37
Q

______ provides guidelines for apparently healthy individuals who can safely complete activity

A

Exercise is Medicine Initiative

38
Q

Acute myocarditis is one of the absolute contraindications to exercise testing

39
Q

Acute systemic infection with fever is one of the relative contraindications to exercise testing

40
Q

Ventricular aneurysm is one of the absolute contraindications to exercise testing

41
Q

Arterial hypertension with systolic blood pressure of 180mmHg is one of the relative contraindications to exercise testing

42
Q

Patients with absolute contraindications may be tested only after careful evaluation of the risk–benefit ratio

43
Q

Independent variable is also called as response variable because it depicts changes as a function of dependent variable

44
Q

The level of physical fitness has a significantly better (stronger) dose response relationship compared to the degree of physical activity

45
Q

High school and college athletes should undergo preparticipation screening by qualified professionals
