- Pear-shaped body: 3 Times more likely to
develop cardiovascular disease.
ANTHROPOMETRIC MEASUREMENT
1. BODY WEIGHT
Grading of BMI
- Underweight: Below 18.5
- Normal: 18.5-24.9
- Overweight: 25.0-29.0
- Obese: <30
6. JUGULAR VEIN DISTENTION
- Simply the filling of the jugular vein(s)
with excessive fluid such that they
become visibly distended
- Due to: Sided Heart Failure
- Procedure:
a. Patient Placed semi-supine at 45
degrees
RATE PRESSURE PRODUCT (RPP)
Exercise Tolerance Test (ETT) - HR x SBP
- Purpose: To examine the ability of the
cardiovascular system to accommodate to
increasing metabolic demand
2 Major Goals
- Detect presence of ischemia
- Determine functional aerobic capacity
The patient exercises through stages of
increasing workloads, expressed in units
of oxygen.
