Risks during Cardiac Rehabilitation
 In Cardiac Rehab
 Risks extremely low for supervised moderate activity
 Home & Clinic risk is equal
 Exception: Vigorous Exercise
 100 x risk of healthy population
Minimizing Risks
 Pre-participation Screening/Health Risk Appraisal
 Identify individuals at risk for adverse events from
exercise

Patient Pretest Instructions
 Wear comfortable shoes & clothing
 Drink plenty of water (See Fluid Guide Pyramid,
Gatorade, Inc.)
 Avoid food, tobacco, alcohol & Caffeine 4 hrs prior
to testing (or overnight)
 Avoid strenuous exercise the day of the test
 Get adequate sleep prior to the test
General Principles of exercise Testing
Minimizing Risks
 Monitoring HR and Rhythm [HR monitor or ECG], BP,
RPE, SAO2 if h/o hypoxia (e.g. pulmonary disease,
CHF, Renal Failure, etc.)
 Before, during and after
 Know in advance when to Stop the Test
 Be Prepared for an Emergency
RPE Scale

 Acute Care (Functional Assessment)
 Field Tests
 Submaximal Exercise Tests
 Symptom Limited GXT
 Maximal GXT
 Oxygen Analysis Tests

Steady State HR achieved & measured
HR increases linearly with workload
HR & BMR are uniform for age/gender
Mechanical Efficiency
Submax is for functional interventions, to get target for EX
percription.
Maximal if for cardiac assessment.

 Onset of angina
 > 20 mm Hg drop in BPs or failure to rise
 BPs > 260 mm Hg. or BPd >115 mm Hg
 S&S
 Failure of HR to  with workload increases
 Change in heart rhythm
