What are the duties and responsibilities of CEPs? (5)
• Conducting pre-exercise screening • Performing exercise testing and evaluation • Developing exercise prescriptions • Instructing individuals in proper training techniques • Supervising exercise programs in various settings
What is diagnostic testing?
Helps assess the presence of cardiovascular or pulmonary disease
What is functional capacity testing?
Helps assess an individual’s capacity to participate in physical activity and exercise
What is involved pretesting?
It is a form of a survey or questionnaire that the individual fills out (PAR Q and You)
What are some pre testing procedures?
• pretest screening • physical exam • health history • informed consent
What should be considered when prescribing exercise? (5)
• plans for physical activity and exercise • achieves specific outcomes • meets the interests and goals and health needs • based on sound principals • has a team approach to it
What is Clinical exercise physiology?
Uses physical activity and exercise to prevent or delay the onset of chronic disease in healthy individuals
What is Informed consent?
a voluntary agreement that a person gives to participate in an exercise program or test after understanding the risks and benefits involved
What is Par-Q?
It is a questionnaire that the participant fills out. That screens for evidence of risk factors during moderate physical activity. And reviews your family medical history
What is ECG (EKG)?
a test that measures the heart’s electrical activity, blood pressure, and heart rate while a person is exercising
What is Echocardiography?
imaging technique that uses ultrasound to evaluate how well the heart works during exercise
What is Rating of Perceived Exertion?
a subjective scale that measures how hard someone thinks they are exercising
What is Spirometry?
It measures the lungs and how much air you can breathe in and out, and how quickly you can exhale
What is Graded exercise test?
a test that measures a person’s exercise capacity by gradually increasing the difficulty of the exercise
What is Cardiac Arrhythmia?
a condition that can occur during exercise and is characterized by an abnormal heart rhythm or rat
What is Myocardial infarction?
when blood flow to the heart is reduced or stopped, causing the heart muscle to die from lack of oxygen (Heart Attack)
What is Angina Pectoris?
chest pain that occurs when the heart muscle doesn’t get enough oxygen and blood caused by plaque buildup
