Fick Equation
Relationship b/w Metabolism and Cardiovascular Function
1) VO2= Q (a-v)O2difference
2) VO2= HR x SV x (a-v)O2diff
Cardiac Output Measurement Equation
Q= HR x SV HR= BPM SV= mL
Dead Space- Anatomical vs. Physiological
space in the alveoli
Cardiac Output levels at Rest and Maximal Exertion
at Rest- 4 liters/ min (small person) to 6 liters/min (average) (can vary depending on person)
Maximal- Males 22 liters/min
Females 15 liters/min
Ejection Fraction (EF)
EF= SV / EDV
Averages 60% at rest
Proportion of blood pumped out of L ventricle w/ each beat.
- Common in older people, pumps more but less blood.
Systolic Blood Pressure
increases in direct proportion to the intensity of exercise
Diastolic Blood Pressure
Very Little change w/ exercise
Max Arterial Pressure (blood pressure)
1/3 (systolic- diastolic) + diastolic
Rate Pressure Product
SBP x HR
a Measure of myocardial workload
Factors Affecting Blood Flow
Pressure Gradient: 1 side vessel vs. another side.
HR & SV: + press. on that end.
Vessel Radius- ves. increase in size
Vessel length- travels more/ less
Viscosity of Blood- if blood is thicker it/w flow slower
Factors affecting Vessel radius
Oxygen level Temp. Changes CO2 levels Blood acidity adenosine levels CADET to the right
Hypertension
A SBP of ≥ 140, or a DBP ≥ 90 measured on at least 2 separate locations.
AHA Rec blood pressure levels
Normal: systolic & diastolic 100 or>
Effects of exercise on BP
Reduced resting catecholamine levels
Post exercise dilation of blood vessels
Possible lower blood sodium levels
Weight control
Maximal Oxygen Consumption (VO2 max)
VO2max= Q x a-vO2diff
A-VO2 difference
average A-VO2 difference is 15 @ max exercise
Increase fitness, assoc. w/ increase A-VO2 diff. due to better extraction of oxygen & better distribution of the blood.
Oxygen Utilization
Myocardium utlizes 70-80% of available O2 at rest and exercise
Karvonen
HRR (karvonen)
Target HR= [%exercise intensity x (HRmax - HRrest)] + HRrest
MAX HR
HRmax x % intensity= target HR
Limitations of HR
meds emotions temp humidity air pollution
Rating of perceived exertion
prescribe intensity monitor intensity RPE 12 to 16 -approx 40 to 84% HRR Use alone in conjunction with HR
cool down
reduce risk of cardio complications
gradually reduce intensity 5- 10 min
Allow HR and BP to return to Baseline or near
Prevents pooling of blood in extremities
reduce dizziness and fainting
time (duration)
-prescribe time and intensity to prop. stress cario resp system
ACSM rec:
30-60min moderate
20-60min vigorous
for a total of 150/week of moderate exercise or 75 of vig
increase exercise volume
no more than 10% per week
Aerobic training methods
continuous training
one contnnous exercise bout
Discontinnous training
several intermittent low to high intensity bouts interspersed w/ rest period
