Description

Pediatric Exercise Medicine: From Physiologic Principles to Health Care Application draws from the most current research activity in the area to examine physical activity as a prerequisite to the good health and physical performance of children. The book also considers the effects of lack of exercise on children and the relevance of exercise to clinical pediatrics for children with chronic diseases. While emphasizing clinically related issues, it provides comprehensive coverage of the child-exercise-health triad of importance to all professionals serving young people. The text identifies current research in the area of pediatric exercise and helps the reader to compare the exercise responses of healthy children to the responses of children with clinical impairments. In turn, readers will recognize the factors that can influence children's activity behavior, trainability, and performance. The book contains three chapters related to the normal physiological and perceptual exercise responses of the healthy child, followed by nine chapters considering the effects of exercise on children with clinical impairments such as asthma, diabetes, cerebral palsy, and obesity. A special feature is the coverage of children's trainability and the factors that can influence performance. The book includes extensive graphic interpretation of data, helpful reference tables, and six appendixes on normative data, methods, energy-equivalent tables for different activities, scaling for body size, and a glossary of terms.
