There are 6 recommendations for exercise professionals to help prevent exercise related cardiac events. What are 2 of them?

Health care professionals should know the pathologic conditions associated with exercise-related events so that physically active children and adults can be appropriately evaluated.

Physically active individuals should know the nature of cardiac prodromal (period between initiation and full development of symptoms) symptoms and seek prompt medical care if such symptoms develop.

High school and college athletes should undergo preparticipation screening by qualified professionals.

Athletes with known cardiac conditions or a family history should be evaluated prior to competition using established guidelines.

Health care facilities should ensure that their staffs are trained in managing cardiac emergencies, have a specified plan, and have appropriate resuscitation equipment

Physically active individuals should modify their exercise program in response to variations in their exercise capacity, habitual activity level, and the environment

Identify 3 out of the 7 methods to assess body composition. Give one advantage and one disadvantage of each.

DEXA: gold standard (very accurate), short test, lots of info obtained; expensive, radiation exposure

BIA: accurate, short test, easy to administer, cheap; hydration status can significantly skew results

Air Displacement Plethysmography: accurate, realtively short; expensive, frequent calibration, dedicated space, claustrophobic?, body hair can skew result

Hydrostatic Weighing: accurate, relatively short: subject preparation/training required, expensive, needs own space, measure reliant on air clearance of lungs, subject anxiety

Skinfold: cheap; subject may be uncomfortable, dependent upon skill of technician

Circumference: cheap, easy to do; dependent upon skill of technician

BMI: free, just need to know height and weight; just a ratio, innacurate for more muscular people
