decrease sedentary behaviour and promote weight loss, decreasing stress on joints.
aerobis- helps cardivascular fitness.
ROM exercises help reduce stiffness
blaance an agitily- improve balance and decrease fall
resisitance- help maintian or build strength to suppirt joints.
3
Q
Pre participation health screening- arthritis
A
identify arthritis in question 4 of get active questionnaire. Probe clients for additional info about medical history.
4
Q
Understanding risk of PA- arthritis
A
may be at increased risk of adverse effects especially if: experince joint pain, severe swelling or stiffness for >14 days, has limited mobility, comorbid conditons- (refer).
5
Q
Disease and treatment considerations- arthritis
A
NSAID have no significant impact on exercise response, tollerance, HR or BP. Initiate and progress PA cautiously. Back pain- antidepressants and muscle relaxants- montior for drousiness.
6
Q

PA can help manage adverse effect of cancer and treatment. Aerobic and/or resiitant traninge can decrease anxiety, depression, fatige, imporve phyical functioning and QOL. Exercise may decreases progression, recurrance and cancer specific mortality
18
Q
Canadian cancer statistics
A
most common in 50+, leading cause of death (30%)- lung, prostate, breast, colorectal are most common
19
Q
disease treatment considerations- cancer
A
primary treatment= preferred treatment
adjuvant therapy- given after primary treatment to decrease risk of recurrence (ie hormone, chemo, radiation), can also be given before primary treatment (neo-adjuvant)
local therapy: directed to specific region vs systemic therapy- travels via bloodstream. Trageted therapies are systemic therapies that target cancer cells.
20

treatment outcomes can be improved by optimixing wellbeing prior to treamtent- interventions help imporve health, decrease incidence and severity of furutre impairments.
28
Safety considerations- cancer
start with mild intensity for deconditoned or weak cleints- build slowly. Can have highly variable episotic symptoms, capacity can fluctuate. Advanced cancers , matatesis to bone- at high risk of injury- refer to specilaized QEP. Stop exercise immediately if chest pain, SOB, high risk of bleeding, uncontrolled vomitong or diherrea, ect. Avoid public fitness centres due to comprimized immune systems.
29
Coronary heart disease (CHD)
circulation to heart comprimized- partil blockage to 1 or more coronoary artery- can resilt in shortage of O2 to heart - causes chest pain, SOB. total blockage casues nerosis or heart attack.
30
cerebrovascular disease
circulation b/in brain comprimized- blocked for mins to hours: TIA
most common invlove ischemic stroke- often due to athlesclerosis of carotid artery.
less common: hemeragic stroke: occurs when weakness of BV causes rupture- risk facotr= high BP.
31
Peripheral artery disease
impacts circulation in limbs causes pain in muscles especailly at high exercise demands common woth cornoary arety disease
32
heart failure
heart cant provide enouhg blood to the body typically due to heart dmage. have increased sympathetic activity, volume retention and peripheral muscle dysfunction. typically suffer from SOB, swelling of lower limbs. exercise important for managment.
33
arrythmias
irregular heart beat often due to electrical circuitry. can casue deecreased exercise capacity and or increased HR
34
congenital heart disease
variety of birth defects in heart, some result in death, others disability.
35
hypertension
high BP related to CDV, mortality doubles w. every 20/10mmhg. medication helps decrease BP, lifestyle changes important
36
hyperlipidemia
high cholesterol and/or cholesterol- major risk factor for CVD. can lead to buildup and narrow arteries. high LDL is of concern- deit and exercise.
37
Benifits of regular PA- CVD
can help decrease mortality and need for surgical intervention.
regular aerobic can increase fitness, endurance and cardiovascular function. increase in fitness decreases resting HR, BP and increases SV at rest and at submax exercise. cardiac demads at given intensity decrease. increases skeletal muscle function and increase VO2 max.
38
disease treatment considerations- beta blockers
decrase HR and BP at rest and attenuate increase during exercise- use RPE
39
disease treatment considerations- diuretics
increase fluid loss- ensure proper hydration
no impact on HR
40
disease treatment considerations- ACE
decrease resting BP and attenuae bp response to exercise but dont impact tollerance.
41
disease treatment considerations- calcium channel blockers
depress AV and SA node conduction and produce peripheral vasodialtion- decrease BP and HR at rest and exercise.
42
disease treatment considerations- anticoagulants
for those with clotting risk. dont impact HR or BP but increase risk of bleeding- cautin for impact sorts.
43
disease treatment considerations- statins
lower toal or specific subparticles of cholesterol- dont impact HR or BP or tollerance.
44
disease treatment considerations- Nitrates
control acute angina symtoms- increase HR and decrease BP- can increase tollerance for exertional angina
45
disease treatment considerations- Acetylsalicylic acis (ASA)
asprin. prescribed after event or if at hogh risk. anticoagulent- at minster at sign of heart attack. long term use associated with proloned clotting and brusing.

54
Safety considerations CVD
stop immediately if have chest pain, symptoms of myocardial ischemia, excessive sweating, ect. Exercise may not be suitble if condition very unstable. start slowly and progress slowly.
55
Clinical exercise testing
may be necessary prior to initiating training. American heart association produces absolute and relative contraindications to testing. If have absolute- refer to QEP with advanced training.
56
Type I diabetes
autoimmune... immune system attacks/destroys insulin producing cells of pancreas. Must use insulin to manage blood glucose. Typically occurs before 40
57
type II diabetes
metabolic disease- body doesnt properly use insulin produced or body doesnt produce enough. higher risk if overweight, often diagnosed after 40.
58
pre-diabetes
high blood glucose indicates increased risk of type II diabetes- lifestyle interventions can help.
59
Gestational diabetes
hyperglycemia during pregnancy- decreases after delivery, at risk of type II diabetes w/in 5-10 years.
60
benefits of regular physical activity- diabetes
can prevent and manage diabetes. IMproves how body responds to insulin. Can help protect against heart disease. Aerobic and resistance training both independently influence blood glucose uptake.
61
Disease treatment considerations
may be prescribed >=1 blood glucose reducing medication.
May need to supplement w/ carbohydrates to prevent drop in blood glucose to <5-6mmol/L
HR and BP response may be blunted in diabetes clients- particulary if on CVD meds or have neurapathy
62
hypoglycemia
blood glucose <4mmol/L
causes: too much insulin, skip meals, alcohol, lots exercise, ect
symptoms: weakness, shaking, increased BP, hunger, ect

Time: 1-3 sets of 8-12 reps for all major muscle groups
Type: body, free, machine cn be used
67
Safety considerations diabetes
be aware of comorbid conditions that may impact exercise tollerance.
start slowly and progress gradually frequency and duration and intensity
may have decreased ability to detect heat- and can impair ability to maintain body temp.
may need to delay exercise if blood sugar too low or high
68
when to delay exercise- diabetes
<5.5mmol/L- ingest 15-30g carbs prior to exercise
>16.7 mmol/L and client doesn't feel well
69
Dementia and mild cognitive impairment
dementia- set of symptoms; experience decline in cognitive function severe enough to decrease ability to perform everyday tasks.
if decline doesn't impact daily living- mild cognitive impairment.
depression and anxiety common with dementia
70
Person 1st language- dementia
person living with dementia
71
Benefits of regular physical activity- dementia
helps improve aerobi fitness, strength, blance, mobility- helps daily living. Aerobic and resitance may help cognitive function by changing chemicals in brain. PA may also help mental and social wellbeing- can feel more confident and cpable, give sense of control.
72
Disease treatment considerations- dementia
may or may not be on medication. Acetylcholine inhibitors can decrease HR especially when combined with other drugs that decrease HR- may need to use RPE. May also be on medication for vascular disease.
73
Pre-participation health screening- dementia
may or may not identify self in Q 4 of get ative questionaire. Clarification needed on medical history, if need extra guidance- Pa clearance form.

81
Anxiety disorder
people living in state fo constant worry and fear that can be overwelming
82
eating disorders
serious emotional and physical problems that have life threatening consequences if QEP senses client has ED refer to health care provider. May encounter client that engage in disordered eating and/or over exercising.
83
Benefits of regular exercise- mental health and illness
good for mental health- prevents symptoms of mental illness, increases QOL, wellbeing ect among those with anxety and mood disorders. Has demonstrated greater impact than other atlernative therapies. Impacts brain chemicals and stress system, providing distraction for coping.
84
Disease treatment consideration- mental health and illness
program must be flexible and planned during time with hogh enerfy levels for those wood mood disorders
antidepressants can cause drousiness- dont impact HR, BP or decreased tollerance.
axiety disorder- start with low intensity- so dont mimic symtoms, home based programs may be more approriate

group may help engagment- w/in comfort of cleint
90
Safety considerations- mental health and illness
if suspect eating or substance use disorder refer. Don't push too hard when just starting out
91
disease treatment considerations risk classification- osteoporosis
based on screening placed in 1 of 3 categories based on risk of fracture in next 10yrs; low: 10%, moderate 10-20%, high >20%- those with spine or hip fractures or with very low bone mineral density (even with absence of other risk factors) automatically considered high risk- should refer high risk. risk helps tailor exercise programs
those at low risk often don't need medication
92
Risk factors for osteoporosis or bone loss
age, histort of fractrues, low BMI, parental hip fracture, rhematoid arthritis, ect
93
Pre-participation health screening- osteoporosis
may identify on question 4 of get active questionaire- probe for additional info
94
understanding risk- osteoporosis
risk of fracture may be elevated for certian tyes and intensities especially if had fragility fracutre over 40, taken systemic corticosteroids for 3m+, recent fall or >=2 falls in last 12m, prexisit conditon, hisotry of spine or hip fracture.
95
Prescription parameters- spine sparing strategies; osteoporosis
loads to avoid: apllying rapid, repetitive, weighted, loaded, sustained, or end range flecion or twisting torque to the spine.
96
Prescription parameters- challenging balance exercises; osteoporosis
most effective program to prevent falls--> functional strength and blance training- should be challenging balnce DAILY
tai chi can be effective
97
Prescription parameters- progressive resistance training; osteoporosis
should be inlcuded in all programing and performed 2+ days/week. if new start at low intensity and build up- high intensity may not be appripriate for those at a high risk of fractures.
98
Prescription parameters- impact activities; osteoporosis
participation in MVPA can prevent early death and disability- walking (weight bearing) has shown modest impact on bone density higher impact may incrase hip bone mineral density. best to start lower then progress
99
Beniftis of regular PA- respiratory conditons
can improve strength and endurance, respiratory symptoms and exercise capacity
100
Pre participation health screening- respiratory conditions
asthma- identify on screening- probe for more info
if have comorbid conditions- at higher risk of adverse events- refer
101
Disease treatment considerations- respiratory conditions

rhythmic activities incorporating major muscle groups
resitance should be body weight, or loght weights or machine
107
PA recomendatins for COPD
stretching and breathing and daily walks are good
try to exercise >=3x/week.
3 types of exercise to incorporate: stretch for relaxation and flexibility, aerobic for fitness, resitance for strength and endurance.
108
PA recomendations for Athsma
shouldnt avoid exercise if well controled- ensure to always have enhaler. emphasize proper warmip and cool down. avoid triggers- be mindful of temp and air quality. stop and take enhaler- then wait a few mins, if have symptoms - take another does if symptoms still presnt
