This book was released on 1906 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Background'. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in Canadian women. 'Objective'. The purpose of this study was to explore and describe the relationship between physical activity and the determinants of cardiovascular health in healthy mid-life women. The primary research hypothesis was that physically active women would have a healthier cardiovascular health promotion profile than non-active women. 'Design'. A cross-sectional comparative survey. 'Sample & setting'. A health and fitness facility in Winnipeg, Canada was utilized to access the target population of healthy, mid-life women between 35 and 74 years of age. The 206 women who participated in the study were self-described as healthy, with no previous history of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, or hypertension. 'Conceptual framework'. The Population Health Promotion (PHP) model provided the framework for this research. 'Methods'. The Paffenbarger Physical Activity Questionnaire was used to assess physical activity in the cohort. The demographic data form and the Cardiovascular Health Promotion Profile were derived from the PHP model to encompass the essential components of the determinants of cardiovascular health in women. In addition, blood pressures, resting heart rates, height, weight, waist, and hip measurements were recorded. Data were analyzed with a variety of univariate and multivariate procedures. 'Findings'. Active women were more likely to be members of the facility, younger, and have higher levels of socioeconomic status. Although members' resting heart rates were significantly lower and their perceived health status, as well as their dietary actions and beliefs, were more positive than the non-member cohort, there was minimal support for the hypothesis that membership effects healthier behaviors overall. 'Conclusions'. The evidence suggests that healthy, physically active, mid-life women, especially those who exercise regularly and/or vigorously at least once a week, have.
Download or read book Treadmill Exercise and Its Effects on Cardiovascular Fitness Depression and Muscle Aerobic Function written by Nuno Azóia and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The link between physical activity and health benefits has been intuitively known for years. Moreover, medical literature clearly demonstrates that physical activity positively affects a number of parameters related to health and longevity. In this book, current evidence about physical training in cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is reviewed, focusing on the mechanism by which it determines its beneficial effects, including its link to inflammatory response. In addition, this book examines whether the exercise pace self-selected by individuals is adequate to produce an exercise intensity able to promote benefits in cardiorrespiratory fitness and health. The effects of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) are also explored, as well as the other important roles of CEPT, such as its use in cardiac reconditioning. In addition, a fundamental understanding of age-associated normohemodynamic state is described for comparison data and for improved means of aerobic exercise fitness and performance. Treadmill exercise test parameters are important to identify patients with increased mortality risks, which would otherwise remain unrecognised and untreated. Thus, the association between peripheral arterial disease (PAD), treadmill exercise test parameters and long-term outcomes are discussed in this book.

Download or read book A Comprehensive Guide to Geriatric Rehabilitation written by Timothy L. Kauffman and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2014-09-05 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its third edition, this trusted clinical guide enables both the busy practitioner and student to review or to learn about a range of pathologies, conditions, examinations, diagnostic procedures, and interventions that can be effectively used in the physical rehabilitation of older people. It presents a broad overview of age-related physiological changes as well as specific professional discipline perspectives. Organized into eleven distinct and interrelated units, the first unit begins with key anatomical and physiological considerations seen with aging which have significant impact on the older person. The second and third units go on to review important aging-related conditions and disorders of the musculoskeletal and neuromuscular/neurological systems respectively. Neoplasms commonly encountered in older people are the focus of the fourth unit; while aging-related conditions of the cardiovascular, pulmonary, integumentary and sensory systems are presented in units five through seven. Unit eight highlights a range of specific clinical problems and conditions commonly encountered with older patients. Critically, all of these units emphasize important examination and diagnostic procedures needed for a thorough evaluation and stress interventions that can be of significant benefit to the older patient. The ninth unit presents select physical therapeutic interventions that are especially important in managing rehabilitative care. Key societal issues related to aging are discussed in the tenth unit. Finally, the concluding eleventh unit focuses on the successful rehabilitation team that includes both professional and non-professional caregiver members. A trusted guide to the conditions and problems faced when evaluating and treating geriatric patients Extensive coverage over 84 chapters, each written by an expert in the field Includes imaging, vision and the aging ear Cross-referenced - providing the complexity and inter-relatedness of co-morbidities common to aging patients Collaborative international perspective Chapters on the aging spine; frailty; safe pilates for bone health; health care for older people Additional renowned editor - Ronald W. Scott Revised title to reflect the comprehensive scope of content covered (previously entitled Geriatric Rehabilitation Manual)

Download or read book Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Physical Therapy E Book written by Donna Frownfelter and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2014-03-12 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing a solid foundation in cardiovascular and pulmonary physiology and rehabilitation, Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Physical Therapy: Evidence and Practice, 5th Edition uses the latest scientific literature and research in covering anatomy and physiology, assessment, and interventions. A holistic approach addresses the full spectrum of cardiovascular and pulmonary physical therapy from acute to chronic conditions, starting with care of the stable patient and progressing to management of the more complex, unstable patient. Both primary and secondary cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders are covered. In this edition, updates include new, full-color clinical photographs and the most current coverage of techniques and trends in cardiopulmonary physical therapy. Edited by Donna Frownfelter and Elizabeth Dean, recognized leaders in cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation, this resource is ideal for clinicals and for practice. Evidence-based practice is demonstrated with case studies, and the latest research supports PT decision-making. Real-life clinical cases show the application of concepts to evidence-based practice. Holistic approach supports treating the whole person rather than just the symptoms of a disease or disorder, covering medical, physiological, psychological, psychosocial, therapeutic, practical, and methodological aspects. Coverage includes both primary and secondary cardiovascular and pulmonary conditions. An integrated approach to oxygen transport demonstrates how the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems function together. Emphasis on the terminology and guidelines of APTA's Guide to Physical Therapist Practice keeps the book consistent with the standards for practice in physical therapy. Key terms and review questions in each chapter focus your learning on important concepts. The Evolve companion website includes additional resources such as a case study guide, Archie animations, color images, video clips, WebLinks, and references with links to MEDLINE abstracts. Full-color photos and illustrations enhance your understanding of the book's concepts. Two new Mobilization and Exercise chapters cover physiologic principles along with application to practice. Information on airway clearance techniques is revised and condensed into one comprehensive chapter. New reference style makes it easier to find resources by replacing the old author-date references with numbered superscripts linked to MEDLINE abstracts.
