Exam 1 Flashcards
two common Disease designations
- diesease of poverty
- diseases of affluence
diesease of poverty
disease that are mre prevalent among the poor ( infectious/contagious/communicable)
- AID, Tuberculosis, Diarrheal disease
diseases of affluence
disease that are thought to be result of ↑ wealth in a sociaety
-type 2 diabete, depression, stroke, obesity
disease related to sedentary lifestyels and poor nutrition
- obesity
- diabete
- hypertension( silent killer)
- metabolic syndrome
- These are ↑ risk for heart disease, stroke, cancers kidney disease
Diabete
There are 4 different kinds
- type 1– no insulin ( get a pump)
- type 2– doesn’t work right (relative defincey) (preventable)
- gestational
- they dont know hwy it is acting this way
metabolic syndrome
Need 3 of these symptoms to have this disorder
- abdominal obesity
- -hypertension
- -insulin resistance
- -↑triglycerides
- -↓HDL-C
the government have realized the importance of promoting healthy lifestyles
- suregeion general report (1995)
- ACSM
Surgeon Generals Report (1995)
every adult should accumulate 30 min or more of moderate intensity physical activity on most days of the week
ACSM
recommendation for physical activity for Adults and Older Adults(2007) this is a update from the surgeon generals report.
Reasons ↓ physical Activity in society
- societal values–priotities, taking short cuts
- role models
- economy– not enough money for good food
- access
- loss of PE in schools
- discrimination claims by some
- public acceptace of obesity/ sedentary
- reliance on moderan medicine
- misinformed public
- not enough psychology related research
- technology
2014 - number of deaths
1- heart disease (23%) 2maliganant neoplasma (23%) 3 chronic lower respiratory disease (6%) 4 accidents 5 strokes 6 alzheimers 7 diabetes 8 influenze and pneumonia
1900- number of deaths
1 pneumonia (12%) 2 tuberculosis (11 %) 3 diarrhea, enteritis ulcerations 4 disease of the heart 5 stroke 6 nephritis 7 all accindents 8 caner and other malignant tumors
What is actually being measured?
Blood Pressure
low & high pressure on the artery
- ↑ the ventral is contracting (stolic)
- ↓ the ventral is relaxing ( diastolic)
what are the 4 vital measurements
1 core temp
2 heart rate
3 blood pressure
4 respiratory rate
What is making the noise that you are listening for ?
Blood Pressure
turbulence
normal flow- laminar flow– will not hear
Variability with BP is due too
- circadian rhythme (body 24 hour clock)
- stress
- nutritional factors ( monster, preworkout)
- drugs
- disease
- posture
- exercise (high 480/350mmHG)
can blood pressure be too low?
no such thing unless they start to have symptoms → dizziness, fainting
methods of BP measurement
1 Auscultatory
2 oscillometric
3 invasive
Auscultatiory
methods of BP measurement
- noninvasive
- stethoscope and sphygmomanomete
- typically performed with brachial artery
**Korokoff sounds
Auscultatiory
methods of BP measurement
1- snapping sound heard at the SBP
2- are the mumurs fro most of the area btwn the systolic and diastolic
3/4- pressures within 10mmgh above the dbp
(thumping and muting)
5 sound is silence as the cuff pressure drops below DBP
**cuff sized
Auscultatiory
methods of BP measurement
- infant, peds, adult, large adult
- cuff is too…
- too big- underestimation of BP
- too small- overestimation of BP
**location of Cuff
Auscultatiory
methods of BP measurement
should be level with the heart
- should use the RIGHT side
- can read BP anywhere on the body really
- always use the higher number
Why use the right side for BP
for consistnacy
- also when you are doing bp on someone you dont know you should do both their right and their left side
- PAD pateints should have both arms and ankles
during bp should feet be flat on the floor or crossed
flat on the floor
