31
Q

RT…

A
  • reduces pain and disability (osteoporosis)
  • effective treatment of chronic back pain
  • increase vigor
  • reduce fatigue
32
Q

  • cardiovascular complication- SCD (sudden cardiovascular death) or acute myocardial infarction (AMI/ heart attack) due to vigorous intensity exercise
33
Q

Musculoskeletal injury (MSI)

A
  • walking/moderate PA = low risk
  • jog/run/competitive sports = higher risk
    common places = lower extremities
    increase PA = increase risk of MSI
    Reduce risk = stretch, warmup, cool down, gradual intensity/ volume progression
34
Q

Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF)

A

strong predictor of CVD mortality and morbidity
Dose-relationship between CRF and CVD morbidity, metabolic syndrome, and mediating biomarkers of CVD

35
Q

Low PA and high sedentary time =

A

higher risk of all-cause mortality, CVD, hypertension, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and increased waist size

36
Q

Cardiac arrest vs heart attack

A

cardiac arrest = electrical problem
heart attack = circulation problem

37
Q

Primary mechanism of cardiac arrests and SCDs for runners

A
  • atherosclerosis (narrowing/clogging of arteries)
    increase O2 demand = increased blood flow
    can cause SCD if O2 demand increases and heart is not fit to handle it
38
Q

Secondary mechanism of cardiac arrests and SCDs for runners

A

tissuing of plaque… geometric/ hemodynamic changes (changes if there’s a block) of epicardial arteries and thrombotic response to vigorous exercise
eschemia = lack of BF and O2

39
Q

Cardiac events (AMI, ventricular fibrillation, hospitalization, death) with exercise testing

A

risk is low with easier intensity, higher risk in CVD patients- should exercise in medically supervise settings

40
Q

How to reduce risk with vigorous intensity exercise:

A
  • have a healthcare professional present that understands risks/ symptoms
  • physically active individuals should know symptoms
  • high school/ college students usually get a pre-screening by healthcare professionals
  • Athletes with known cardiac condition or family history evaluated before competition
  • healthcare facilities
  • physically active individuals should modify PA to be individualized to their needs
41
Q

Role of clinical exercise physiologist

A

look at people individually and figure out how to get them moving; understand relationship between PA and/or exercise and disease prevention and rehabilitation

42
Q

First step of clinical exercise testing:

A

Informed consent!
Obtain proper written informed consent for ethical and legal consideration. Prior to collection of personal and confidential info, any form of fitness testing, and exercise participation
- should verbally explain everything to participant
- must say that participant can withdraw at any time
- must protect health info

43
Q

Informed consent in research environment

A

must be reviewed by institutional review board or international review board
- must include purpose, plan, risk-discomfort, confidentiality, results, data handling-storage, emergency plan in place, etc

44
Q

Common components of informed consent

A
  • purpose/ explanation of test
  • attendant risks and discomforts
  • responsibilities of participant
  • benefits to be expected
  • inquiries
  • use of medical records
  • freedom of consent
45
Q

Purpose of pre-screening

A
  • see who needs medical clearance before PA or before increasing intensity
  • see with clinically significant diseases who may benefit from participating in medically supervised exercise program
  • see who has medical conditions that prevent participation unless conditions are improved or better controlled
46
Q

ACSM pre-screening algorithm makes recommendations for medical clearance based on:

A
  • individual’s current level of exercise participation
  • presence of signs or symptoms and/or known CV, metabolic, or renal disease
  • anticipated/ desired exercise intensity
47
Q

To decrease risk of cardiac event

A

progressive transitional phase of 2-3 months for gradual increase of duration of exercise or intensity of exercise
- common recommendation = start w/ light to moderate intensity 2-3 METS then gradually increase to 3-5 METS over time if no symptoms`

48
Q

Used for pre-screening

A
  • ACSM’s preparticipation screening algorithm
  • health history questionnaire (HHQ)
  • PAR-Q+ (used in absence of professional assistance w/ ACSM algorithm) - more detailed than ACSM and HHQ
49
Q

ACSM algorithm indentifies the risk modulators of

A
  1. current PA levels
  2. identify signs and symptoms of underlying CV, metabolic, and renal disease
  3. identigy individuals with diagnosed CV and metabolic disease
  4. Use signs and symptoms, disease history, current exercise participation, and desired exercise intensity to guide recommendation for preparticipation medical clearance
50
Q

Signs/ symptoms of cardiovascular, metabolic, renal disease

A
