Q

Step 4 for taking pulse with palpation

A

Begin counting the first pulsation as 0 when timing is initiated simultaneously or, if a lag time occurs after the start time and the first pulsation, begin with the number 1.

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.

21
Q

Sphygmomanometer

A

A manometer and a blood pressure cuff. Used for blood pressure measurements.

22
Q

Body Composition

A

The relative proportion of fat and fat-free tissue in the body (percent body fat).

Q

Obesity II BMI classification

A

35 - 39.9

29
Q

Obesity III BMI classification

A

equal to or greater than 40

Q

Abdominal skinfold site

A

Vertical fold 2 cm to the right side of the umbilicus

31
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

32
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)

33
Q

Medial calf skinfold site

A

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

34
Q

Midaxillary skinfold site

A

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

35
Q

Subscapular skinfold site

A

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

36
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

37
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)

38
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

39
Q

Bioelectrical impedance

A

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

40
Q

One Rep Max

A

A one- time maximum amount of weight lifted.

41
Q
