HK 154 Exam 3 Vocab

TermDefinition
Mandatory/Intrinsic aging Process we do NOT control! Results in deterioration of physiological process and loss of function/cell death with age.
Facultative/Extrinsic Aging: Process we DO control! Made of personal social and lifestyle choices that occur on community and individual levels.
Changes that Effect Aging Decrease in sensations, muscle mass/physical capacity, mental/organ functions, and bone mineral density
Sarcopenia Loss of lean body mass associated with aging
Benefits to PA & Aging Lowers and reduces dementia risk, anxiety/depression symptoms. Provides better QoL and opportunities for social engagement
Older Adult PA Guidelines At least 150 minutes/week of moderate intensity exercise; with muscle strengthening/balance training activities at least twice a week.
Cardiovascular disease Range of diseases that affect the heart and blood vessels.
What diseases are included in CD Hypertension, CHD/CAD, atherosclerosis, PAD, angina, heart attack/stroke, aneurysm, etc.
Leading cause of death in the US Coronary heart disease
Non-modifiable risk factors of CVD Old age, males, family history, certain races/ethnicities.
Modifiable Risk Factors of CVD High Blood pressure/cholesterol, tobacco use, diabetes, overweight/obese, inactivity, and excessive alcohol consumption.
Function of cardiovascular system Transport oxygen, nutrients and waste products.
Normal Heart Rate 60-100 beats/minute
Bradycardia SA node fires < 60 bpm. (exercise-induced)
Tachycardia SA node fires > 100 bpm.
Systole Contraction phase
Diastole Relaxation phase
Blood Pressure Created by blood pushing against walls of arteries. Measured in mmHg and rises/falls throughout the day.
Normal Blood Pressure 120/80 mmHg
Atherosclerosis Process that deposits fatty substances/cholesterol/cellular waste products/calcium; that can build-up in inner lining of artery.
Consequences of atherosclerosis Overtime can cause reduced blood flow/supply. Plaques can ruptures causing blood clots.
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Atherosclerosis of peripheral arteries. Lack of blood supply to extremities.
Angina Chest (or shoulder/arm/neck) pain that is ONLY a symptom. Caused by lack of oxygen to the heart.
Lifestyle changes to manage CVD Diet (limit salt/sugar/fats), smoking cessation, stress management.
PA & CVD Delivers MORE oxygen to heart and brain. Influences blood pressure, body fat/cholesterol levels, diabetes and stress.
PA vs Mortality from CVD Inactivity (most prevalent) has a 2-4 times greater inverse relationship with exercise and death rate.
Type I Diabetes Autoimmune disease that destroys pancreatic beta cells (which produce insulin). Creates for too much glucose in blood.
Type II Diabetes Body produces enough insulin, but cells are less sensitive to it. Creates too much glucose in blood. (90-95% of cases)
Prediabetes Serious health condition with high blood sugar levels, but not high enough to be Type II diabetes.
Gestational Diabetes Develops during pregnancy and typically goes away after birth. High blood glucose CAN affect the baby!
Insulin Deficiency Occurs when not enough insulin is produced. (Type ONE Diabetes)
Insulin Resistance Occurs when body does not respond to insulin produced. (Type TWO Diabetes)
Insulin Hormone that controls glucose homeostasis.
Produces and Releases Insulin Pancreas
Stimulates Release of Insulin Glucagon; increases blood sugar levels.
Risk Factors of Type I Diabetes Genetics, Family History and Viral exposure.
Risk Factors of Type II Diabetes Obesity, Genetics/family history, Physical inactivity, Smoking, High cholesterol/blood pressure, Race/ethnicity.
Gestational Diabetes effects on fetus Blood glucose travels through placenta and gives baby high levels; baby’s pancreas creates extra insulin to remove excess; baby gets more energy, which is stored as fat.
Metabolic Syndrome Cluster of conditions that increases risk of heart disease, strokes and diabetes.
Metabolic Syndrome Conditions Hypertension, High blood sugar levels, Excess abdominal fat and Abnormal cholesterol levels.
PA Effect on Type II Diabetes Inverse relationship and Dose-responsive.
Direct Effects of PA with Type II Improves body’s response to insulin and glucose.
Indirect Effects of PA with Type II Maintains and reduces weight.
Chronic Kidney Disease Progressive damage and loss of function in kidneys. Build-up of fluid/body waste or causes electrolyte problems.
Modifiable Risk Factors to CKD Age, Female, Ethnicity (Black, Native American, Asian), Family history, Diabetes, abnormal kidney structure.
Non-modifiable Risk Factors to CKD Diabetes, Smoking, Obesity, High sodium, High Blood Pressure, Cardiovascular disease.
Non-dialysis PA & CKD Small increase in regular PA can improve QoL and health.
Dialysis PA & CKD Regular PA decreases risk and death.
Cancer 2nd leading cause of death in the US. Caused by abnormal/uncontrolled cell growth.
Carcinogenesis Cancer cell development resulting from gene mutation.
Inherited Cancer Cell Development Caused from parents.
Sporadic Cancer Cell Development Caused by change or occurrence from life that can build up over time.
Invasion Spreading of cancer cells that is DIRECT migration into tissues
Metastasis Spreading of cancer cells that penetrates lymphatic and blood vessels and reaches other tissues around the body.
Risk Factors of Colon Cancer Dietary fat intake and physical inactivity.
Risk Factors of Skin Cancer UV radiation and scars/burns.
Risk Factors of Prostate Cancer: Age (80% cases in men > 65)
Risk Factors of Lung Cancer Smoking (10-20x greater risk) Exposure to air pollution, radon, and asbestos.
Risk Factors of Breast Cancer Reproductive/Menstrual History (No children), Being overweight/obese after menopause.
60% of tumors and cancer mortality Occurs in adults 65+, and most have morbid disease that complicates treatment.
Side Effects of Cancer Treatments Largely depends on dose, site, and type of treatment; Effects can last up to 10 years and may consist of fatigue, nausea, hair loss, cognitive dysfunction, decreased immune function.
Primary Prevention of Cancer: No smoking, Healthy diet, Be active, Avoid radiation/chemical exposure, Wear sunscreen
Secondary Prevention of Cancer Get screened to find precancerous cells early to remove before metastasis.
Tertiary Prevention of Cancer Physical activity to decrease the risk/severity of co-morbidities during/after treatment
Modifiable Risk Factors: What we CAN change; Obesity/diet, Smoking, Environment*, Physical inactivity
Non-Modifiable Risk Factors What we can NOT change; Age, Genetics, Ethnicity/race, Sex
Physical Activity Bodily movement produced by contracting skeletal muscles with increases in energy expenditure above resting levels.
Exercise Planned, structured, and repetitive PE (subset of PA)
PA v. Exercise All exercise is PA, but NOT all PA is exercise!
PA benefit: Reduces risk of Premature death and Chronic diseases
PA benefit: Enhances Weight management, Well-being/mood, Muscle/Bone health, Cognitive/Physical function
PA Adult Guidelines Aerobic 150-300 minutes at least 2x per week.
PA Adult Guidelines Resistance Training 2 or more days/week for total. (3 days/week = untrained) (4-6 days/week = trained)
Older Adults (65+) Guidelines: At least 150 minutes/week of moderate intensity & Muscle strengthening activities 2+ days/week
F (Frequency) Number of sessions a week
I (Intensity) Difficulty/stress level of each exercise session
T (Time) Duration of each exercise session
T (Type) Activity performed during each exercise session
