Densitometry

_____________________ and ________________ have recently gained popularity and also provide great precision in body composition assessment.

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), multicomponent modeling

Circumference measures should be taken with a cloth tape.

Duplicate measurements are recommended at each site; however, it is suggested to take measurements of all sites once and then repeat the sequence. The final value is the average of the two measures, provided they do not differ by more than 5 mm.

Total body electrical conductivity (TOBEC)

Electrical current passes through animal muscle and bone (highly conductive); fat (lowly conductive). Less current passes through a fat animal.

The most common diagnostic indication is the assessment of symptoms suggestive of ______________________

ischemic heart disease (IHD).

Health care facilities should ensure that their staff are trained in __________________

managing cardiac emergencies, have a specified plan, and have appropriate resuscitation equipment.

Evaluating exercise capacity is an important aspect of exercise testing.

oA high exercise capacity is indicative of a high peak Q and therefore suggests the absence of serious limitations of left ventricular function. oA significant issue relative to exercise capacity is the imprecision of estimating exercise capacity from exercise time or peak workload. §The standard error in estimating exercise capacity from various published prediction equations is at least ±1 MET.

Estimates of VO2max from HR response to submaximal exercise tests are based on the following assumptions:

oA steady state HR is established for each work rate. oA liner relationship exists between HR and work rate. oThe difference between predicated and actual MHR is small. oMechanical efficiency is the same for everyone. oThe individual is not on any HR altering medications (see Appendix A) or OTC products.

Indications for clinical exercise testing encompass three general categories:

oDiagnosis (e.g., presence of disease or abnormal physiologic response) oPrognosis (e.g., risk for an adverse event) oEvaluation of the physiologic response to exercise (e.g., blood pressure [BP] and peak exercise capacity)

FITT-VP principle of exercise prescription

oFrequency (how often) oIntensity (how hard) oTime (duration or how long) oType (mode or what kind) §Total Volume (amount) §Progression (advancement) vBased on application of existing scientific evidence vIntended as guidelines for apparently healthy adults

oHydrodensitometry oPlethysmography

CRF is a health-related component of fitness

oLow levels of CRF fitness have been associated with a markedly increased risk of premature death from all causes and specifically from cardiovascular disease. oIncreases in CRF fitness are associated with a reduction in death from all causes. oHigh levels of CRF fitness are associated with higher levels of habitual PA, which in turn are associated with many health benefits.

Testing Mode and Protocol The mode selected for the exercise test can impact the results and should be selected based on the test purpose and individual preference.

oTreadmill oCycle ergometer oOther exercise testing modes may be considered.

Risk is related to the absence or presence of __________________________

occult CVD, exercise intensity, age, and PA.

Contraindications are intended to avoid unstable ischemic, rhythm, or hemodynamic conditions or other situations in which __________________________

the risk associated with undergoing the exercise test is likely to exceed the benefit.

The principle behind skinfold measurements is that the amount of subcutaneous fat is proportional to _______________________

the total amount of body fat.

Before collecting data for body composition assessment, the technician must be __________________________

trained, experienced in the techniques, and already have demonstrated reliability in taking measurements, independent of the technique being used.

Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing

vA major advantage of measuring gas exchange during exercise is a more accurate measurement of exercise capacity. vCPET data may be particularly useful in defining prognosis and defining the timing of cardiac transplantation and other advanced therapies in individuals with heart failure. vCPET is also helpful in the differential diagnosis of individuals with suspected cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.

Rate Pressure Product

vRate-pressure product (RPP, also known as double product) is calculated by multiplying the values for HR and SBP that occur at the same time during rest or exercise. RPP is a surrogate for myocardial oxygen uptake (MVO2). vThere is a linear relationship between MVO2 and both coronary blood flow and exercise intensity. vThe normal range for peak RPP is 25,000-40,000 mm Hg × beats × min−1.

Heart Rate Responses

vThe normal HR response to incremental exercise is to increase with increasing workloads at a rate of ≈10 beats × min−1 per 1 MET. vEquations exist to predict HRmax in individuals who are not taking a b-adrenergic blocking agent (see Table 5.3). vHRmax decreases with age and is attenuated in individuals on b-adrenergic blocking agents. All HRmax estimates have large interindividual variability with standard deviations of 10 beats or more. vAmong individuals referred for testing secondary to IHD, and in the absence of b-adrenergic blocking agents, failure to achieve an age-predicted HRmax >85% in the presence of maximal effort is an indicator of chronotropic incompetence and is independently associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. vA failure of the HR to decrease by >12 beats during the first minute or >22 beats by the end of the second minute of active postexercise recovery is strongly associated with an increased risk of mortality in individuals diagnosed with or at increased risk for IHD.

Blood Pressure Response

vThe normal systolic blood pressure (SBP) response to exercise is to increase with increasing workloads at a rate of ~10 mm Hg per 1 MET. There is normally no change or a slight decrease in diastolic blood pressure (DBP) during an exercise test. oPotential SBP responses §Hypertensive response §Hypotensive response §Blunted response §Postexercise response

Physically active individuals should modify their exercise program in response to _____________________

variations in their exercise capacity, habitual activity level, and the environment.

Although BMI and waist circumference are correlated, _________________________

waist circumference is a better measure of visceral adiposity which can be varied within a given BMI.

The estimate of total body fat percentage can be derived from a measurement of ______________________

whole-body density using the ratio of body mass to body volume.

It is well established that excess body fat is associated ____________________

with many chronic conditions.

Age, gender, race, training status, and certain disease states may affect the density of FFM, _________________________

with much of this variance related to the bone mineral density component of FFM.
