This webinar will review commonly used exercise prescription methods in cardiac rehabilitation programs across the United States including, Target Heart Rate Ranges developed from a maximal, or near maximal test, ranges calculated using a prediction equation, resting heart rate plus a fixed range, rating of perceived exertion, and the “talk test.”
Presented by Robert Berry, MS, ACSM-CEP, FAACVPR; Ash Walker, DHSc., MA, ACSM-CEP, FAACVPR, FCEPA
No relevant disclosures.1.00 AACVPR CEUs, 1.00 ANCC CEUs
This webinar, released as a recorded webinar in 2024, will review commonly used exercise prescription methods in cardiac rehabilitation programs across the United States including, Target Heart Rate Ranges developed from a maximal, or near maximal test, ranges calculated using a prediction equation, resting heart rate plus a fixed range, rating of perceived exertion, and the “talk test.” The advantages and limitations of each method will be discussed. Recommendations on how to maximize improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness will be made.
Learning Objectives:
1). Apply appropriate formulas to calculate a target heart rate range derived from a symptom limited stress test, e.g., Continuous Training, High Intensity Interval Training, etc.
2). Recognize the limitations of using age-based prediction equations for maximal heart rate in clinical populations.
3). Apply other exercise prescription methods, as appropriate, when data from a symptom limited stress test is not available.Viewing window: 60 days from date of purchase

No relevant disclosures
1.0 AACVPR CEUsDescription: As Cardiac Rehab Professionals, we serve adults of all ages, but we will always see a goodly number of aging participants. Although aging participants vary greatly in their abilities and needs, many share specific age-related nutrition issues. This talk, released as recorded webinar in 2024, will address some of the more common nutrition issues associated with aging and cardiovascular disease and disease interventions. We will cover increased protein needs, poor hydration, weight issues (both gaining and losing), constipation and supplements. We’ll cover these issues, and you’ll leave with sound, simple strategies that you can use to help these participants improve their outcomes.
Learning Objectives:
1.) Participants will be able to calculate protein needs of cardiac rehab participants.
2.) Participants will be able to list 3 strategies that can help ease constipation.

This webinar, incorporating mental performance strategies related to mental and emotional flexibility, will complement already existing psychosocial support and may allow members of cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation care teams to enhance the care they are providing patients while lessening the toll it takes on themselves.
Presented by Vanessa R. Shannon, PhD, CMPC
No relevant disclosures.1.0 AACVPR CEUs
Members of cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation care teams are responsible for supporting patients recovering from sudden events or managing chronic illnesses which often cause patients distress. Patients participating in cardiovascular or pulmonary rehabilitation programs express concerns such as future health and wellness and restrictions on their typical lives. While cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation programs incorporate psychosocial components into care, support is often focused on identifying and treating clinical concerns or integrating cognitive-behavioral approaches to stress management. Incorporating mental performance strategies related to mental and emotional flexibility will complement already existing psychosocial support and may allow members of cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation care teams to enhance the care they are providing patients while lessening the toll it takes on themselves.
Learning Objectives:
1.) Participants will learn about the keys to mental performance
2.) Participants will learn mental performance strategies for optimizing performance at work and in life
3.) Participants will learn ways to integrate mental performance strategies into patient careViewing window: 60 days from date of purchase
