Platelet Count
<20,000 → ADLs, AAROM-AROM, no resistive exercises, guard carefully
20,000-30,000 → Light exercises (No PROM; light AROM; walking as tolerated)
30,000-50,000 → AROM, submaximal isometrics, stationary bike, walking as tolerated, aquatic
therapy, NO prolonged stretches or resistive exercises.
50,000-150,000 → minimal to moderate resistve exercises allowed; sexual intercourse, bicycling
with no
grade (flat), swimming, no bench stepping.
>150,000 → normal actvity (unrestricted)
Hemoglobin
<8 g/dL → no exercise (red flag)
8-10 g/dL → light exercise; no aerobics
10-12 g/dL → low impact and low-intensity aerobics, stationary bike, isometrics and resistive
exercises permitted
Hematocrit
<25% → no exercise
>25% → light exercise; progression to resistive exercises when Hct reaches 30%
HCT (%)
(O2 carrying capacity within the body)
Adult Female: 36-46
Adult Male: 37-49
>25%: Light or regular exercise
<25% No exercise
White Blood Cell Count
<5,000/mm3 with fever → no exercise
>5,000/mm3 → exercise permited with progression to resistive exercise
Exercise Termination Criteria
Absolute Indications
SBP drops > 10mmHg from baseline despite increase in workload with other evidence of ischemia
Moderately severe angina (score of 3 on angina scale)
Increase NS systems (ataxia, dizziness)
Signs of poor perfusion (cyanosis, pallor)
Sustained V-Tach (6+ PVCs on strip or 3+PVCs in a row)
1.0mm ST elevation (infarction)
SBP>210/100
Relative Indications
Drop in SBP > 10mmHg from baseline despite increase in workload with no evidence of ischemia
>2mm ST depression (ischemia)
Arrhythmias other than sustained ventricular tachy
Multifocal PVCs
Supraventricular tachy
Heart block
Bradyarrhythmia
Fatigue, SOB, wheezing, leg cramps and claudication
Bundle branch block or intraventricular conduction delay
Increasing chest pain
Hypertensive response (SBP > 250mmHg and/or DBP > 115mmHg)
Other Concerns
PaO2 < 55mmHg (or >20mmHg fall)
PaCO2 > 65mmHg (or >10mmHg rise)
Atrial fibrillation
