FIT PROG & PRESCRIPTION EXAM 4 (PHYSIOLOGY)
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ELABORATIONS!!
hyperglycemia
Answers:
hypoglycemia
Answers:blood glucose level < 70 mg.dl-1 (<3.9 mmol.L-1)
relative contraindication to beginning an acute bout of exercise
common adrenergic symptoms associated with hypoglycemia include shakiness,
weakness, abnormal sweating, nervousness, anxiety, tingling of the mouth and
fingers, and hunger. More severe neuroglycopenic symptoms may include
headache, visual disturbances, mental dullness, confusion, amnesia, seizures, and
coma
hemoglobin A1c
Answers:
insulin
Answers:
insulin resistance
Answers:
impaired fasting glucose
Answers:
,impaired glucose tolerance
Answers:
prediabetes
Answers:
hemoglobin A1c test
Answers:evaluates the avgamount of glucose in blood over the last 2 to 3 months
by measuring the % of glycated hemoglobin in blood
type 1 diabetes
Answers:- stomach changes food into glucose
- glucose enters bloodstream
- pancreas makes little or no insulin
- little or no insulin enters the bloodstream
type 2 diabetes
Answers:- stomach changes food into glucose
- glucose enters bloodstream
- pancreas makes insulin
- insulin enters bloodstream
- glucose cant get into cells of the body, glucose builds up in blood vessels
type 1 continued
Answers:- 5-10% of all diabetes cases
, - autoimmune destruction of beta cells of pancreas
- absolute insulin deficiency
- a high tendency for ketoacidosis.
- require insulin injections
complications of type 1
Answers:- vision loss and blindness
- kidney failure
- stroke
- cardiovascular disease
- nerve damage
- amputation
- poor circulation
- ulcers
- sores
special instructions for type 1
Answers:modify insulin dose and CHO ingestion under physician guidance before
beginning an exercise program
measure glucose 15 minutes before and 15 minutes after exercise
- if <100 mg/dL, consume 20 to 30 grams of CHO
- if >250 mg/dL (without ketoacidosis): moderate intensity only; hydrate well; stop
if not feeling well; monitor glucose
prediabetes continued
