  • 3rd side (hint)
Does a normal aging person have an increase in expiratory air flow resistance
Yes so do people with emphysema and bronchitis
Does fev1 decline with normal aging?
Yes
What is the most significant age-related change in the pulmonary system
Partial pressure difference between the alveoli and the systemic arterial blood

this is due to a decrease in diffusion and also an increase mismatch between alveolar ventilation and perfusion
Does lung tissue compliance increases with age
Yes this is the same thing as saying loss of lung recoil
When is total lung capacity decreased
With restrictive lung disease like idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
What are the primary signs of pulmonary hypertension
Hypoxemia and dyspnea on exertion

then the right sided heart begins to fail causing peripheral edema and maybe jugular venous distention
What could be the cause of crackles low pitched wheezes( rhonchi) or diminished bronchial lung sounds
Pneumonia from a patient with a nursing home
Do anticholinergic medication block the parasympathetic or the sympathetic nervous system
They block the parasympathetic nervous system

this medication would be used as a bronchodilator like Ipratropium- atrovent short acting and spiriva long-acting

combivent is albuterol and ipratropium which is a combination short acting beta 2 agonist and anticholinergic and one inhaler
What has more side effects like higher heart rates and increased nausea with albuterol administration
Nebulizer over metered dose inhaler
When does albuterol peak
It starts 10 minutes post-treatment peaks in 1 hour and lasts for 4 hours

Based on the HOAC II examination strategy should be developed based on what
Initial data like the medical record and the patient identified problem especially activity limitations and partition restriction
How often do you give encouragement on the six minute walk test
Every 60 seconds

Also if you walk less than 350 metres your 5 year survival rate is 75 percent if you walk under 250 meters your survival rate is only 40%
MDC for the six minute walk test
54 meters or 180 feet though some people said that was too much

so in 2008 they suggested as an MCID :35 meters or a hundred fifteen feet for people with moderate to severe COPD or 10 percent increase over baseline distance
DVT clinical decision rule
Doe scale

This scale does not quantified dyspnea it quantifies either dyspnea that occurs when it should or should not or the associated activity limitation
Borg CR 10

Categorical ratio scale that is not linear in nature this allows more specificity and quantifying dyspnea
MCID is one unit
What provides the best measurement of oxygenation
Pa 02
Diminished breath sounds are heard with mild atelectasis due to shallow breathing or mucus plugging as well as with
Emphysema and hyperinflation
According to the guide the practice patterns selected during the evaluation should be directly related to
Intervention strategy and tactics selected

for instance someone with a joint replacements may require interventions like ankle pumps to prevent complications so their primary practice pattern would be modified to be risk reduction for venous thrombosis
What is the best way to predict heart rate max
208 - 0.7 times age

In a pulmonary patient target heart rate would be 5 beats before the threshold where they desat
What heart rate max is equivalent to moderate intensity

What about for heart rate reserve
60 to 80 percent


50 to 75 percent
If you're in pulmonary rehab and you're performing 80 percent of your rep max which is your 10 rep max how do you know when to increase the weight
When you can do 20 repetitions with good form
Does pursed lip breathing increase VT
Yes
Is chest physical therapy a routine intervention for those with pneumonia or chronic bronchitis
No but oscillating positive expiratory pressure with the acapella can help clear Airways with COPD
Based on the HOAC II, goals should be based on what
Function

with impairment level testing criteria for each goal
What is the primary reason that PLB helps relieve dyspnea on exertion
Increased end expiratory long volume is inhibited

also oxygen saturation is the most important physiological response to assess during exercise
Fyi
What Mets relate to moderate intensity

vigorous?
3-6

greater than 7
ACSM evidence categories
Level a= is overwhelming evidence from an RCT or observational studies

level B = strong evidence from RCT or observational studies, some studies are inconsistent with conclusion

level c = generally positive or suggestive observational

level d = panel consensus judgment at the strength of the evidence is insufficient to take place in the other category
American Dietetic Association evidence grading system
Level a= well conducted generalizable RCT or compelling nonexperimental evidence

level B = well conducted cohort studies or case-control

level c = poorly controlled studies or an RCT with major flaws

level e = expert consensus or clinical experience
Does physical activity improve systemic insulin action
Yes for 2 to 72 hours
level A
How many hours a week of moderate to vigorous exercise should be undertaken as a part of lifestyle changes to prevent type 2 diabetes
Two and a half hours
The acronym smart can be used to help individuals that appropriate goals
Specific
measurable
attainable
realistic
time frame specific
Metformin is the generic name for the class of drug biguanide, what is the brand name that is common
Glucophage

it decreases hepatic glucose production and decreases insulin resistance

Glipizide is a generic name from the class of drugs sulfonylureas, what does it do
Stimulates beta cells to release insulin
Cycloset is a dopamine agonist
That improves glycemic control in an unknown way working in the brain
What consists of have drugs absorb distribute metabolize and excrete
Pharmacokinetics

in most people absorption is not a problem unless you have gastroparesis
What drug is a Verapamil from calcium channel blocker for hypertension it can cause edema
Yeah I need mistake making this card
What is glycosylation?
It occurs as glucose in the plasma attaches itself to the haemoglobin component of the red blood cell

this is irreversible

increases A1C test values
A tremor, palpation, or anxiety or pallor from hypoglycemia is this neurogenic neuroglycopenic
This is a neurogenic stage 1
How do Ages affect the body
Decrease tissue extensibility due to cross linking of proteins in soft tissues
What is the fastest growing population with diabetes diagnosis
65 to 74 and it's not uncommon that they already had the disease for 4-7 years before being diagnosed
Amylin
Decrease glucose
Dm is characterized by
Hyperglycemia due to detect in insulin secretion, action or both
Does smoking have anything to do with pathogenesis of Dm?
No

Does: genetics, lifestyle, sarcopenia

What drug does the opposite?
Digitalis
(also Inhibits sympathetic)
Thereby making the heart stronger and reducing its stress

Calcium channel blocker : limit calcium and also decrease si node rate
Is aspirin an anticoagulant or an anti thrombotic
Anti thrombotic- same as plavix (inhibitors platlets)

heparin is an anticoagulant (control synthesis of clots)
Explain how to use the karvonen method
First karvonen is to find your exercise range, your target heart rate
HR max-HR test X %intensity

To find heart rate max use
: 208 - 0. 7 X age
This is the recommended formula for healthy persons

The best fit formula for HR max accounts for weight
210-50%age-5%WT + 4(male) or 0 if female
Relate these from the 6-20 borg to the normal 0-10 borg

55-64% HR max

machines or free weights?
You should choose multi joint exercises before single joint

and use machines when available instead of free weights as machines require less skill and allow one to begin at lower resistance and increase by small increments
