Q

Korotkoff sounds

A

The sounds of the blood as it makes its way from an area of high pressure to that of lower pressure as the air is let out of the pumped-up cuff during BP auscultation.

Q

Phase 1 Korotkoff Sounds

A

The first sound or the onset of sound. Sound resembles a clear, repetitive tapping. The sound may be faint initially and gradually increase in volume to phase 2. Phase 1 represents SBP.

Q

Phase 2 Korotkoff Sounds

A

Soft tapping or murmur-like sound; often longer than phase 1 sounds and may have a swishing component. The phase 2 sounds are typically 10-15 mm Hg after the onset of sound in phase 1.

Q

Phase 3 Korotkoff Sounds

A

Sounds transition to a high-pitch loud tapping and are both more crisp and loud than phase 2 sounds.

29
Q

Phase 4 Korotkoff Sounds

A

Sounds become muffled, less distinct and audible, and may be described as soft or blowing.

30
Q

Phase 5 Korotkoff Sounds

A

Complete disappearance of sound; usually occurs within 8-10 mm Hg of sound (phase 4) and is considered DBP.

A

Vertical fold 2 cm to the right side of the umbilicus

38
Q

Biceps skinfold site

A

Vertical fold; on the anterior aspect of the arm over the belly of the biceps muscle, 1 cm above the level used to mark the triceps site

39
Q

Chest skinfold site

A

Diagonal fold; one-half the distance between the anterior axillary line and the nipple (men), or onelhird of the distance between the anterior axillary line and the nipple (women)

40
Q

Medial calf skinfold site

A

Vertical fold; at the maximum circumference of the calf on the midline of its medial border

41
Q

Midaxillary skinfold site

A

Vertical fold; on the midaxillary line at the level of the xiphoid process of the sternum.

42
Q

Subscapular skinfold site

A

Diagonal fold; 1 - 2 cm below the inferior angle of the scapula

43
Q

Suprailliac skinfold site

A

Diagonal fold; in line with the natural angle of the iliac crest taken in the anterior axillary Iine immediately superior to the iliac crest

44
Q

Thigh skinfold site

A

Vertical fold; on the antertor midline of the thigh, midway between the proximal border of the patella and the inguinal crease (hip)

45
Q

Triceps skinfold site

A

Vertical fold; on the posterior midline of the upper arm, halfway between the acromion and olecranon processes, with the arm held freely to the side of the body

46
Q

Abdomen: Circumference Site

A

Horizontal measure taken at the height of the iliac crest, usually at the level of the umbilicus

47
Q

Arm: Circumference Site

A

Horizontal measure taken midway between the acromion and olecranon processes, with arms hanging freely at sides in a neutral position

48
Q

Calf: Circumference Site

A

Horizontal measure taken at the level of the maximal circumference between the knee and ankle, perpendicular to the long axis

49
Q

Forearm: Circumference Site

A

Measurement taken at the maximal circumference perpendicular to the long axis; arm hanging down with palm facing anteriorly

50
Q

Hip: Circumference Site

A

Horizontal measure taken at maximal circumference of the buttocks, above the gluteal fold

51
Q

Midthigh: Circumference Site

A

Subject should place one foot on a bench so that knee is flexed at 90º; measurement is taken midway between inguinal crease and proximal border of the patella, perpendicular to the long axis.

52
Q

Waist: Circumference Site

A

Measurement is taken at the narrowest part of the torso, between the umbilicus and xiphoid process.

53
Q

Waist-to-Hip Ratio

A

The WHR is a comparison between the circumference of the waist and the circumference of the hip and is an important indicator of body fat distribution.

54
Q

Skinfold Assessment

A

The skinfold technique of body composition analysis is based on the measurement of multiple skinfold thicknesses using a specialized caliper and is based on the theory that there is a predictable relationship between subcutaneous fat stores and total body fatness.

55
Q

Bioelectrical impedance

A

The use of an electric current passing through the body and measuring the resistance to that current.

56
Q

Hydrostatic Weighing

A

Once considered the gold standard for body composition analysis, hydrostatic weighing is based on the Archimedes principle, which states that when a body is immersed in water, it is buoyed by a counterforce equal to the weight of the water displaced.

57
Q

Ultrasound

A

Ultrasound would classify as a doubly indirect method, similar to the skinfold method because subcutaneous body fat measurements are used to predict BD, which is then used to predict %BF.

58
Q

Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry

A

DXA technology has traditionally been used medically for the measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) and by researchers to develop a body composition database.

59
Q

One Rep Max

A

A one- time maximum amount of weight lifted.

60
Q

Cardiorespiratory Fitness

A

CRF can be described as the ability to perform large muscle, dynamic, moderate- to high-intensity exercise for prolonged periods of time and reflects the functional capabilities of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and musculoskeletal systems.

61
Q

Muscular Strength

A

A one-time maximal force that may be exerted and is localized to a joint or muscle group.

62
Q

Muscular Endurance

A

The ability to apply a force repeatedly over time.

63
Q

Cardiorespiratory fitness assessment

A

Testing of ability to perform large muscle, dynamic, moderate to high intensity exercise for prolonged periods of time and reflects the functional capabilities of the heart, blood vessels, blood, lungs, and relevant muscles during various types of exercise demands.
