Q

What is considered as effective non-verbal communication?

A
  • distance and orientation (body positioning) whereby the trainer faces the client and maintains appropriate distance
  • posture and position whereby the trainer adopts an open, well-balanced, relaxed posture with a slight forward lean to show confidence and interest
  • mirroring and gestures whereby the trainer sensitively mimics the client’s gesture and tone to help place ease
  • constant eye contact that is relaxed and instills comfort
  • facial expressions that convey emotion and work to the trainer’s benefits

Q

Why is deflecting ill-advised?

A

deflecting is changing the focus of one individual to another and usually devalues or diminishes the communication, therefore, it shouldn’t be used unless the trainer is trying to show empathy with appropriate experiences.

This means BP drops when changing positions therefore a client may become dizzy if he or she moves too fast.

66
Q

What do beta-blockers do?

A

They block the effects of catecholamines throughout the body and reduce resting, exercise and max heart rates.

67
Q

What are calcium channel blockers used for?

A

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

they are also used for angina and heart dysrhythmias.

68
Q

What do Angiotensin-converting Enzyme Inhibitors do?

A

they block an enzyme secreted by the kidneys that prevents the formation of a potent hormone that constricts blood vessels. If this enzyme is blocked, the vessels dilate and cause BP to decrease.

69
Q

What od angiotensin-II receptor antagonists do?

A

These are selective for angiotensin II (type 1 receptor) and treat hypertension.

70
Q

What do diuretics do?

A

Increase the excretion of water and electrolytes through the kidneys.

71
Q

What can diuretics lead to?

A

They can cause dehydration and lead to cardiac arrhythmias due to water and electrolyte imbalance.

72
Q

What do bronchodilators do?

A

They relax or open the air passages in the lungs to allow for better air exchange by stimulating the sympathetic nervous system.

73
Q

What do decongestants do?

A

These act directly on the smooth muscles of the blood vessels to stimulate vasoconstriction which reduces the volume of swollen tissues and results in more air space in the upper airways.

74
Q

What should baseline physiological assessments do?

A
  • identify areas of health/injury risk for potential referral to appropriate professionals
  • collect baseline date that can be used to develop a personalized fitness program + allow comparison of subsequent evaluations

A

Due to:

  • smaller heart chamber size
  • lower blood volume circulating less oxygen throughout the body
  • lower hemoglobin levels
86
Q

A
  • 12-lead electrocardiogram
  • telemetry
  • palpation
  • auscultation with a stethoscope
88
Q

How do you measure RHR?

A

To be completely accurate, the client should take the measurement when they first wake up. But in a gym setting, the client should sit for a couple minutes before either placing their middle + index fingertips on a pulse site or using a stethoscope.

  • Pulsation: Count the number of beats for 30 - 60 seconds and then correct that to beats per minute.
  • Auscultation: place the stethoscope just above or below the client’s nipple line and to the left of the sternum.
89
Q

How do you measure exercise HR?

A

Measure either a 10 or 15 second window and multiply the counted number by either 6 (10 sec) or 4 (15 sec)

90
Q

What do SBP and DBP represent when reading Blood Pressure?

A

SBP represents the pressure created by the heart as it pumps blood into circulation via ventricular contraction - it represents the greatest pressure during one cardiac cycle.

DBP represents the pressure that is exerted on the artery walls as blood remains in the arteries during the filling stage or between beats, this is the minimum pressure that exists.

91
Q

BP is measured indirectly by listening to the?

A

korotkoff sounds

92
Q

What are Korotkoff Sounds?

A

These are used to measure blood pressure and are sounds made from vibrations as blood moves along the walls of the vessel.

93
Q

Why would you not be able to hear Korotkoff sounds without a BP cuff?

A

Because the BP Cuff creates a deformity within the walls which is vital for the vibrations to be heard. The deformity is created as the air bladder inflates and restricts the flow of blood.

94
Q

At what phase of taking BP do you take the SBP and DBP readings?

A

The SBP is in the first phase where there is the onset of tapping sounds that become progressively louder.

DBP is read first in the 4th phase where there is a significant muffling of sounds and secondly in the 5th phase where sound disappears.

95
Q

If there is a significant difference in readings between arms in BP, what should you do?

A

Refer them to a physician because this can be a sign of a circulatory problem.

96
Q

What are the normal SBP and DBP measurements for adults aged 18+?

A

SBP <120

DBP <80

97
Q

What readings of SBP/DBP would suggest prehypertension?

A

SBP - 120-139

DBP - 80-89

98
Q

What readings of SBP/DBP would suggest stage 1 of hypertension?

A

SBP - 14-159

DBP - 90-99

99
Q

What readings of SBP/DBP would suggest stage 2 of hypertension?

A

SBP ≥ 160

DBP ≥ 100

100
Q

For 40-70 year old individuals, each __mmHg increase in resting SBP or each __mmHg increase in resting DBP above normal double the risk of cardiovascular disease.

A

20mmHg SBP

10mmHg DBP

101
Q

A difference of __mmHg or more in BP between arms increases the risk of?

A

15 mmHg

It increases the risk of peripheral vascular disease and cerebral vascular disease.

102
Q

Using the RPE Borg scale, what does each value correspond to? Example: 6

A

Each value corresponds to a HR.

6 = 60 BPM

103
Q

What is the EFI?

A

the exercise-induced feeling inventory survey.

It asks clients to use a scale of 1-5 to indicate the extent to which each word describes how they feel at the moment (e.g refreshed, calm, worn out)

104
Q

The Exercise-induced Feeling Inventory Survey consists of 4 distinct subscales that define a particular emotional state, what are these?

A

Positive engagement
Revitalization
Tranquility
Physical exhaustion

105
Q

How do you score the Exercise-Induced Feeling Inventory Survey?

A

Each word is associated with one of 4 subscales attached to an emotional state, depending on what number the client has ticked next to each word, add up each score for each subscale.
This should be tracked over a period of 4-6 weeks and the results should be plotted in a graph to show the change/progress.

e.g refreshed 4 = 4 points to feeling of revitalization
worn out 1 = 1 point to feeling of physical exhaustion

106
Q

How can PTs use the exercise-induced feelings inventory to increase the likelihood of continuing with the exercise program?

A

They can use it to check the enjoyment and general feeling towards the program, for example, if the client is always putting 4 points to worn out after the session, the trainer should reduce intensity.

107
Q

What is the name of the essential attribute of successful relationships that is described as ‘the ability to respect another person regardless of his or her uniqueness?’

A

warmth
