The CDC recommends this number of minutes for moderate intensity exercises and this number of minutes for vigorous intensity exercises, or an equivalent mixture.
150 minutes of moderate
75 minutes of vigorous
How maximum HR is impacted by aging. (increases, remains unchanged, or decreases)
Decreases
The 3 components that make up an effective fall prevention program.
Balance training, high intensity strength training, and gait training
This type of balance challenges the center of mass while the feet are fixed.
Static balance
The 3 leading causes of death in geriatrics.
1. Cancer
2. Stroke
3. Heart Disease
The RPE scale value that equates to vigorous intensity exercises.
7 or 8
The vital that is measured by Ejection Fraction.
Stroke volume
Inner ear infections, sensory deficits, age-related changes, medication side effects, and incontinency are examples of these types of fall risk factors
Intrinsic risk factors
This type of balance challenges the Center of mass while the feet are in motion.
Dynamic balance
This is measured by the Karvonen Formula
Target HR
Target range (HRmax-HRrest) + HRrest = HRtarget
How Stroke Volume changes with aerobic exercise.
Improves
The normal measurement range of Ejection Fraction.
55-70%
Number of hours of exercise needed in an Exercise Prescription to be effective in preventing falls.
50 hours spread over a 6-month period
Type of training that is defined by completing a primary task while performing a secondary task.
Dual-Task Training
The number of minutes that a patient should be monitored after an uncomplicated 6-minute walk test.
15
Contributors to this impaired cardiovascular measurement include deconditioning, pathological issues, and physiological factors.
Aerobic Capacity
The vital that is defined by Stroke Volume X HR.
Cardiac Output
Restraints, lighting, environmental hazards, lack of adaptive equipment, etc. are examples of these types of fall risk factors.
Extrinsic risk factors
The 3 components that contribute to moderate to high balance training.
Movement around the center of mass
Narrow base of support
Minimal upper extremity support
The % of 1 rep max that is the optimal training goal for strengthening.
80%
When vital signs should be taken during each treatment session
Before initiating, during, and after terminating exercise
The vital that is measured by drawing lab work and hemoglobin oxygenation analyzed.
Arterial O2 content
Two training techniques that improved reaction times and stepping strategies.
Perturbation and compensatory Stepping Training
Three strategies used to prevent loss of balance.
Ankle, Hip, and Stepping strategies
Number of seconds a stretch is held to be most effective
15-60 seconds
