Chris lecture Flashcards
Why should you focus on outcomes in the clinic?
- Dx underlying pathology
- objective results
- efficacy of current exercise and PT prescription
- Evidence for future exercise prescription
What are some field measurements?
6MWT MMT Antrhopometrics Metabolic Equation Resting BP/HR Spiromety
What are some research measurements?
- 6MWT O2 consumption
- MMT dynamometry
- DXA/MRI/CT
- Indirect alimotry
- GXT
- Body Plethysmography
Field Vs Advanced clinical tests
Indirect vs. Direct
Subjective vs. objective
Cost effective vs. expensive
Surrogate vs. Gold standard
What does the Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA)do?
measure lean, fat, and bone tissue mass
What was DXA originally developed for?
to measure areal bone mineral density (aBMD)
Units for Bone mineral Density
g/cm^2
How does DXA calculate weights of each area?
using attenuation coefficient.
pQCT
Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography
what does pQCT measure?
it assesses Volumetric BMD
how does pQCT differ from DXA?
measures geometry and microarchitecture
