Before 65 years in mother, sister, or daughter. 3. Cigarette Smoking: current smoker, exposure, 6 month cessation 4. Hypertension: Systolic 130 or greater, Diastolic 80 or greater, or on antihypertensive medication 5. Dyslipidemia: HDL-C less than 40 or LDL-C greater than or equal to 130 6. Diabetes: blood glucose greater than or equal to 126, HbAlc greater than or equal to 6.5% 7. Obesity: Men greater than or equal to 40, Women greater than or equal to 35 8 Physical Inactivity: not participating in physical activity for 30 minutes or more of moderate intensity for at least 3 days a week for at least 3 months NEGATIVE RISK FACTOR: High HDL-C: HDL-C greater than or equal to 60Know the normal values for cholesterol and blood glucose (ch 2 table 2.7) - - triglycerides < 150 mg-dl - total cholesterol < 200 mg-dl - LDL cholesterol < 100 mg-dl - HDL cholesterol > 40 mg-dl - Blood glucose 60-99 mg-dl (less than 100) blood glucose - What are the good and bad cholesterol's and what are their normal values - good: HDL: 40-59, >60 is great bad: LDL< 100 Normal BP - 120/80 or less Elevated BP - 120-129/<80 Stage 1 BP - 130-139/80-89 *EITHER OR Stage 2 BP - 140 or above/ 90 or above *EITHER OR what is a MET? - metabolic equivalency - it is the ratio of intensity during exercise vs what you are doing at rest (difference between the two)-1 MET = 3.5 ml/kg/min (sitting quietly) How many METS are required per week, and how many METS are needed for greater health benefits? - 500-1000 3000 How many METS is light exercise? - 1-3 METS How many METS is moderate exercise? - 3-6 METS How many METS is vigorous exercise? - greater than 6 METS If you are walking 3 mph (3METS) for 30 minutes, how many METS would that be? - 90 METS How many METS is sitting quietly? - 1 MET Physical Activity Guidelines (table 1.1) chapter 1 - HEALTH BENEFITS: moderate: 150 minutes vigorous: 75 minutes STAY HEALTHY moderate: 150-300 minutes vigorous: 75-150 -Muscular strength activities: 2 or more days a week (8-12 sets) -30 min of moderate int. exercise 5 days per week OR 20 minutes of vigorous exercise 3 days per weekMetabolic Syndrome (table 1.4) - - combination of CVD risk factors associated with hypertension, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, and abdominal obesity - if its 3 or more CVD risk factors = metabolic syndrome Factors of metabolic syndrome - - waist circumference (>40 men & >35 women) - BP ( systolic 130 or greater OR diastolic 85 or greater) -Fasting blood glucose (>110 mg-dl OR > 6.1 mmol L) - Triglycerides ( > 150 mg-dl OR 1.6 mmol-L) - HDL-C ( < 40 mg-dl or < 1.04 mmol-L for MEN & < 50 mg-dl or < 1.29 mmol-L for WOMEN
