Chapter 2 Flashcards
MET
Metabolic equivalent measurement of energy expenditures at metabolic baseline. 3.5 mL of oxygen/kg body WT/ min
Vo2 and heart rate RESERVE
Max-resting
When you train at a certain % of HRR you can assume that you are at the same % of VO2R
Relative Exercise intensity definitions
- very Light
- Light
- Moderate
- Vigorous
- Very hard
- Maximal
- Less than or equal to 20% of VO2R or HRR
- 20-39%
- 40-59%
- 60-84%
- Greater than or equal to 85%
- 100%
What is the classification “very light” dependent on
functional capacity
what should you examine all exercise candidates for
contraindications for exercise
level of exercise risk: low, moderate, high
is there an existence of clinically significant disease
any other special needs or concerns
what are the age recommendations for recommending a maximum exercise test and medical examination
men older than 45 and women older than 55
list POSITIVE cardiovascular disease risk factors
age, current CVD/PVD, and or family history, smoker or exposure to smoke, sedentary, obese, hypertensive, dyslipdemia, metabolic syndrome
Current CVD/PVD, and or family history
MI, CABG, sudden death by 55 of dad, 65 of mom or first degree relative
smoker or exposure to smoke as a CVD risk
current, quit within six months, lifestyle with chronic exposure
sedentary
less than 30 minutes of moderate intensity exercise 3 days/week for 3 months consecutively
what is considered obesity from a perspective of a body mass index
BMI > 30 kg/m2 body HT
waist circumphrence >102 cm in men (40in) and >88 cm in women (35in)
hypertensive
systolic blood pressure>140 mmHg
and or
Diastolic blood pressure> 90 mmHg
confirmed on at least two spearate occasions or on an anithypertensive medicine
dyslipdemia
LDL>=130mg/dL
HDL 200 mg/dL
metabolic sydrome
impaired fasting glucose (>100 mg/dL)
impaired glucose tolerance (glucose remains >=140mg/dL 2 hours aftrer administration
LOW RISK
asymptomatic and no more than one of the positive cardiovascular disease risk factors. exercise program may be spursued safely without the necessity for medical examination and clearance
MODERATE RISK
still asymptomatic but have two or more fo the CVD risk factors. may safely engage in low-moderate intensity physical activities without hte necessity for medical examination adn lcearance. however, ti is advisable to have a medical examination adn an exercise test before participation in vigorous itensity exercise
HIGH RISK
have KNOWN cardiovascular, pulmonary, or metabolic disease, or they have signs suggestive of disease
signs suggestive of disease
chest, neck, jaw, or arm pain dyspnea at rest or with mild exertion unual fatiue accompanied with mild exhaustion syncope orthopnea (respiratory difficulties in recumbent, supine, or prone positions) paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea ankle edema palpitations tachycardia intermittent claudication known heart murmur
known cardiovascular disease
Coronary artery disease
peripheral artery disease
cerebrovascular artery disease
pulmonary disease
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease may be preceded by such conditions as emphysema, chornic asthma, or chronic bronchitis
Asthma
Interstitial lung disease is inflammation resulting in disruption of walls of alveoli
cystic fibrosis is the major cause of lung disease in infants and more common in blacks than whites
Metabolic disorders
Diabetes Type 1 (insulin dependent: deficiency in insulin production) type 2 (non insulin dependent: decreased cell sensitivity to insulin) thyroid disorders, and renal or liver disease
What are the positive and negative coronary risk factors for heart disease, and are also used for exercise risk stratification
HDL-c is considered a negative risk factor for individuals having HDL-C>60mg/dL. Therefore one positive risk factor is subtracted from the sum of positive risk factors
CABG
coronary artery bypass graphting
MI
Myocardial infarction
PTCA
percutaneal transluminal coronary angioplasty
Angina
pain or discomfort from lack of blood to the heart musclde
Three site skinfold measurements for men
chest, triceps, and subscapular
or
chest, abdomen, and thigh
ischemia
lack of blood supply to the heart
Left ventricular dysfunction
left ventricle losing its ability to pump blood
ejection fraction
measure of blood volume pumped
dyspnea
shortness of breath
