Q

Contraindiction for BP=

A

200/110 mmHG

17
Q

What type of exercise causes the biggest decrease in systolic bp?

A

running

18
Q

What causes a decrease in blood pressure after acute exercise?

A

resetting of baroreceptors

decrease in total peripheral resistance

19
Q

Four considerations when working with hypertensive patients

A

Stage 2 patients need drug therapy first
terminate exercise at 250/115 mmHG
Antihypertensives can impair thermoregulation
Account for potential impaired vision
