摘要:

ABSTRACTThe cardiovascular benefits and risks of jogging are frequently debated. This article presents information on the effects of jogging and other aerobic exercise on heart rate, cardiac output, tissue oxygen consumption and blood pressure. The indirect effects of jogging on cardiac risk factors, such as serum lipids, blood clotting and glucose metabolism, are discussed. Along with the positive outcomes from jogging, the risks to the cardiovascular system are presented. These risks include a sudden drop in blood pressure at the cessation of intense jogging, cardiac arrhythmias and ischemia. The primary care nurse practitioner can play an important role in prescribing a level of exercise that is safe and will enhance physical fitness, particularly cardiovascular fitness. Guidelines for prescribing an exercise program for a variety of patient populations are reviewed, and the need for exercise monitoring by the individual is stressed.

摘要:

ABSTRACTThis article provides a guide for the nurse practitioner conducting a prenatal pediatric visit with expectant parents. With their backgrounds in biological and social sciences, nurse practitioners are uniquely prepared to assess families prenatally and to plan strategies and interventions which will promote their optimal adjustment to parenthood. Major content areas of the prenatal visit include 1) health assessment of the pregnant woman and the family; 2) assessment of the family; 3) assessment of the readiness to parent; and 4) assessment of the provider‐parent fit. Special focus is placed on the problems encountered and appropriate interventions indicated in assessing and working with high‐risk families.
