Question 1

A Myocardial infarction resulting from an acute obstruction of a coronary artery

The hearts blood supply is severely cut off or restricted, causing the heart muscle to suffer and die from lack of oxygen commonly known as a heart attack

Answer 1

Acute myocardial infarction(AMI)

Question 2

Immediate death resulting from a sudden change in rhythm of heart usually caused by heart rhythms that are too fast. This condition is also called cardiac arrest(SCD)

Answer 2

Sudden cardiac death

Question 3

What are the risk modulators of exercise related cardiovascular events?

1. The individuals current level of ________?
2. Diagnosed cardiovascular, metabolic, or ________ disease where the presence of signs or symptoms of these diseases
3. The desired exercise _________?

Answer 3

Physical activity
Renal
Intensity

Question 4

Is medical clearance recommended or necessary?

Client does not exercise regularly and has a cardiovascular, metabolic, or renal disease, or signs or symptoms that suggest she does.

Answer 4

necessary

Question 5

Is medical clearance recommended, or necessary, or Discontinue exercise and seek medical help

Client is a regular exerciser but has signs and symptoms suggestive of cardiovascular, metabolic, or renal disease?

Answer 5

Discontinue and seek medical help - medical clearance is recommend before high intensity

Question 6

The result of an imbalance between myocardial oxygen supply and demand, most often caused by atherosclerotic plaques that narrow and sometimes completely block the blood supply to the heart

And example of this is:
Pain; discomfort or other angina in the chest, neck, jaw, arms, or other areas

Answer 6

Myocardial ischemia

Question 7

Shortness of breath at rest or with mild exertion

Answer 7

Dyspnea

Question 8

Form of dyspnea where the person can breathe comfortably only when standing or sitting up; associated with asthma, emphysema, and angina

Answer 8

Orthopnea

Question 9

This is dyspnea in a RECLINED position onset by two to five hours after beginning of sleep — shortness of breath and coughing

Answer 9

Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea

Question 10

______ is A transient state of unconsciousness during which a person collapses to the floor as a result of lack of oxygen to the brain; commonly known as fainting

Dizziness or ______ , Most commonly caused by reduced perfusion to the brain

Answer 10

Syncope

Question 11

Type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus

Answer 11

Metabolic disease

Question 12

What does the abbreviation CV stand for?

Answer 12

Cardiovascular

Question 13

What does the abbreviation HRR stand for?

Answer 13

Heart-rate reserve

Question 14

What does the abbreviation V02 R stand for?

Answer 14

Oxygen uptake reserve

Question 15

What does the abbreviation METs stand for?

Answer 15

Metabolic equivalents

Question 16

What does the abbreviation RPE stand for?

Answer 16

Rating of perceived exertion

Question 17

This medication

Decreases resting and active HR

Limits sympathies nervous system stimulation

Blocks the effects of catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine) through the body

Answer 17

Beta blockers

Question 18

This medication

Can decrease or have no significant changes in HR during rest or active exercise

Prevents calcium-dependent contraction of the smooth muscles in arteries, causing them to dilate, which lowers BP

Also used for Angina and rapid or irregular HR

Answer 18

Calcium channel blockers

Question 19

What does a beta blocker do?

Answer 19

Beta blockers reduce your blood pressure. Beta blockers work by blocking the effects of the hormone epinephrine, also known as adrenaline.

They cause your heart to beat more slowly and with less force, which lowers blood pressure. Beta blockers also help open up your veins and arteries to improve blood flow.

Question 20

What does a calcium channel blocker do?

Answer 20

Calcium channel blockers lower your blood pressure by preventing calcium from entering the cells of your heart and arteries. Calcium causes the heart and arteries to contract more strongly. By blocking calcium, calcium channel blockers allow blood vessels to relax and open.
