Exam 16: Work Tests to Evaluate Cardiorespiratory Fitness

The original Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion scale used the rankings from _______whereas the revised Borg scale now uses a ranking from ______.

Which of the following field tests is used for children?

Heart rate can be measured by palpating the carotid artery.Applying too much pressure to the carotid artery could impact the measurement of heart rate in which of the following ways.

If a 30-year-old man checked a "yes" response on the PAR-Q+,what should he do prior to taking an exercise test?

For many individuals that are not trained cyclists,the highest VO₂ value is usually measured during an exercise test to exhaustion using

The "double product" is___________________.

The Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire can be used to estimate VO₂ max in a diverse population.

Studies have shown that VO₂ max can be estimated without an exercise test by combining a few simple variables.Which of the following variables are NOT typically used to estimate VO₂ max in a large and diverse population?

Which of the following specific signs would be an indication to stop a graded exercise test?

One standard error describes where 68% of the estimates are compared to the true value.

The type of graded exercise test that is most conducive for individuals to complete at home or for testing large groups of subjects simultaneously is

The basis for the running field tests for estimating VO₂ max is that

A sphygmomanometer may be used during a cycling exercise test to determine

VO₂ max can be estimated by drawing a line through the heart rate values measured during a submaximal graded exercise test and extrapolating to the age-adjusted maximal heart rate.Which of following factors could contribute to an underestimation of VO₂ max using this type of submaximal test?

VO₂ max can be estimated by completing a cycle ergometer test to exhaustion.Calculate the estimated VO₂ max from a graded cycle ergometer test given the following information: Subjects age = 40 years old Subjects body weight = 72 kilograms Subjects maximal heart rate = 180 beats/min Highest work rate achieved on cycle = 1000 kpm VO₂ (ml^. min^-1)= (1.8 ml^.kpm^-1 X kpm^.min^-1 )+ (7ml^.kg^-1.min^-1 X kg body weight) Using the above information,the estimated VO₂ max (ml^. min^-1)would be:

Which of the following is NOT a symptom of myocardial ischemia?

The term arrhythmia refers to

In general,the graded exercise test (GXT)used for sedentary subjects would start at 2-3 METs and progress at about_____________ per stage.

VO₂ max can be estimated by drawing a line through the heart rate values measured during a submaximal graded exercise test and extrapolating to the age-adjusted maximal heart rate.This VO₂ max estimate could be incorrect if:

The term dyspnea refers to ________________.
