- You are working in cardiopulmonary rehabilitation. It is your patient, Dave’s, first day of rehab. Dave had a heart attack 45 days ago. He is 40 years old and feels comfortable and confident enough to walk on a treadmill or ride a bike. Upon talking with Dave, you learn that he regularly exercised up until his heart attack. He completed resistance training 3 days/week at his local gym and would play tennis with friends several days each week. He can walk comfortably without an assistive device on flat surfaces at his own speed. You need to determine Dave’s VO2 in order to create a correct exercise prescription. Would you test this person, yes or no? If yes, please indicate what protocol you would choose and whether or not the test would be maximal or submaximal? Please include your rationale.arrow_forwardAs a result of heart failure, compensatory mechanisms become activated and ultimately lead to further harmful consequences in the long term. Which of the following is NOT one such compensatory mechanism? O Baroreceptor-mediated activation of the sympathetic nervous system that leads to increased heart rate and contractility The activation of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) that leads to increased blood pressure increased cardiac preload A reduction in both heart rate and blood pressure O Myocardial hypertrophy resulting in the thickening of the ventricular wallarrow_forwardA key role of the atrioventricular node is to act as a barrier to prevent the electrical impulse in the atria from reaching the ventricles. slow down the conduction of the electrical impulse as it passes from the atria to the ventricles. act as the pacemaker of the heart, by generating electrical signals in the right atrium. speed up the conduction of the electrical impulse as it passes from the atria to the ventricles. block backflow of blood from the aorta into the right ventricle.arrow_forward
- Which of the following statements best describes the actions of the neurotransmitter noradrenaline in the heart? Noradrenaline acts on α1-adrenoceptors in the sinoatrial node to increase heart rate. Noradrenaline decreases the rate and force of contraction of the heart. Noradrenaline increases the rate, but not the force of contraction of the heart. Noradrenaline acts on β1-adrenoceptors in the sinoatrial node to increase heart rate.arrow_forwardDefine Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) in your own words. Name three risk factors for CVD.

- Brink studied the effect of postural change on cardiovascular reactivity for a sample of healthy white and African American men and women. Change in systolic blood pressure (SBP) from supine to standing position was used as the measure of cardiac reactivity in a sample of 842 adults. Supine measurement of blood pressure was taken after participants had lain on an examination table for 15 minutes. Blood pressure was measured five times every 2 minutes using a preset automated blood pressure monitor, and the five measurements were averaged. Participants then stood up, and an additional five measurements were made over another 10-minute period and then averaged. Below is a table describing the characteristics of Brink’s sample.
