How can hospitals be better prepared? A case study of an exercise design program and its effect on a real-life event
1Spectrum Health Hospitals, Grand Rapids, MI, USA.
Abstract:
Hospitals continue to strive to meet exercise requirements of The Joint Commission and simultaneously identify organization-specific components of a successful exercise design program. The authors suggest that using a department-level focus during this process improves education, exercise design and outcome, and contributed to the success of a real life disaster response.

Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
Exercise Stress Test
Exercise stress testing, commonly known as a treadmill test, is a noninvasive procedure used to evaluate cardiovascular function and diagnose heart conditions.
Definition
An exercise stress test measures the heart's response to exertion using a treadmill or stationary bicycle. Chest electrodes record the heart's electrical activity through an ECG, and blood pressure is monitored regularly.
