1Hypertensive SBP
>250 mm Hg - test termination!
2Hypotensive SBP
>10 mm Hg drop from baseline
3why might SBP drop during exercise
cardiac ischemia, LV dysfunction, increased risk cardiac events
4SBP blunted response due to
LV dysfunction, some meds
5SBP should return to baseline within ____ min of exercise
6
6if SBP recovery time is increased, linked to
ischemic HD with poorer prognosis
7abnormal DBP during exercise
>90 or >10mm Hg from baseline
8Increased DBP can lead to
exertional ischemia
9DBP to terminate test
>115 mm Hg
10DBP should return to normal within ___ mins
6
11During ex, the rate ______ and the rhythm ______
increases, unchanged
12ST seg changes could indicate
cardiac ischemia
13dysrhythmias may _______ in frequency or complexity when ______ intensity
increase, increase
14dysrhythmias lead to an increased risk of
cardiac arrest
15ST seg changes that continue post ex phase could indicate
myocardiac ischemia
16frequent/complex ventricular dysrhythmias post ex -> Increased risk of
cardiac arrest
