>Measurement in Pediatric Exercise Science> provides a unique combination: standardized lab protocols for assessing anthropometric and physiological attributes in children and complete information on field assessments of pediatric fitness. With this book, researchers and clinicians will find in a single reference everything they need for evaluating pediatric populations.Written by prominent international leaders in the field for the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP), this valuable text describes and critically evaluates a wide range of measurement techniques. In Parts I and II contributors focus on physical and physiological assessment:--Anthropometry-Body composition-Maturation-Anaerobic performance-Aerobic performance-Muscular strength and enduranceEach chapter in these two sections--introduces the measurement area;-discusses the significance of collecting the data;-discusses the developmental characteristics of the measurement variable; and-reviews the tests and protocols used most often, including guidelines and recommendations for standardizing the techniques used with pediatric populations.Whenever possible, the book includes normative standards to allow researchers to compare their subjects with others.After a complete evaluation of assessment techniques, Part III discusses measuring physical activity and critically analyzes the field tests and batteries that are used to test fitness levels in children. Batteries from the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe are considered and evaluated for their validity and reliability. Also, with the guidance of Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology (CSEP), one contributor provides recommendations for specific international standards.>Measurement in Pediatric Exercise Science> is an important reference for exercise scientists, pediatric sports medicine specialists, and pediatricians. It's also suitable as a text for upper-division undergraduate courses in growth and development and for graduate courses that focus on collecting and interpreting physical and physiological data on pediatric groups.

Pediatric Exercise Medicine: From Physiologic Principles to Healthcare 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 Pediatric Exercise Medicine: From Physiologic Principles to Healthcare Application emphasizes 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. It also 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. The next nine chapters consider the effects of exercise on children with clinical impairments, including asthma, diabetes, cerebral palsy, and obesity. A special feature is the coverage of children's trainability and the factors that can influence performance. The information, including environmental stressors on children, will be of interest to scholars and students as well as to coaches working in this area. The book also has these features: -Extensive graphic interpretation of the data--more than 250 illustrations -Helpful reference tables -Six appendixes on normative data, methods, energy-equivalent tables for different activities, scaling for body size, and a glossary of terms. In Pediatric Exercise Medicine: From Physiologic Principles to Healthcare Application, you'll find content you can apply in your daily work as a therapist, exercise scientist, physician, or other professional. You'll also find evidence-based rationale for the need for physical activity as a preventive measure and treatment of disease in children.

Pediatric Exercise Science (PES) is the only journal devoted solely to issues concerning exercise in children. Its contents are designed to serve not only as a repository of knowledge in the field but also as a means of provoking creative thought. It thereby strives to act as a forum for new ideas and new directions concerning physical activity and fitness in youth. In doing this, PES crosses disciplines and acts as a means of communicating information among various groups of interest in this field, including exercise physiologists, physicians, public health specialists, and physical educators. Many of the articles in Pediatric Exercise Science focus on the field of childhood exercise. Recent issues of PES have also addressed topics such as effects of exercise in children on cognitive function, changes in blood pressure related to activity in youth, and measurement techniques for physical activity in children. An issue focusing on exercise in special needs populations is planned for later this year. Also available is the online format of PES that offers the same authoritative content available in the print edition, but with the additional advantages of electronically formatted material including the potential to search journals in seconds, access to five years of back issues, and the ability to examine the online version weeks before the print version arrives. Online subscribers are also sent each issue's table of contents by e-mail to announce that a new issue has been published.

Exercise testing plays an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and assessment of heart disease and lung disease in children and adolescents. In Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in Children and Adolescents, leading expert Thomas W. Rowland, backed by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the North American Society for Pediatric Exercise Medicine (NASPEM), compiles the latest evidence-based research to provide guidance for clinical exercise physiologists, cardiologists, pulmonologists, and students of exercise physiology who conduct exercise stress testing for young patients. The core objective of the book is to clarify the differences between clinical exercise testing for children and testing for adults. Because of obvious differences between the two populations, test protocols must be modified based on the patient's age, size, level of physical fitness, body composition, intellectual and emotional maturity, and state of cardiac and pulmonary health. Part I provides an introduction to pediatric exercise testing. Part II examines exercise testing methodologies and discusses blood pressure, cardiac output, electrocardiography, oxygen uptake, and pulmonary function. Part III focuses on specific clinical issues addressed by exercise testing, guiding readers through protocols for diagnosis, evaluation, and exercise testing. Part IV explores testing in special populations and focuses on topics such as childhood obesity, neuromuscular disease, and intellectual disabilities. Where applicable, sample forms and checklists provide practitioners with practical materials to use during exercise testing. Sidebars offer readers insight into considerations such as the presence of parents during testing and adjustments of cardiac measures for youth body dimensions. This book serves as a means of focusing and unifying approaches to performing pediatric exercise testing in order to lay the foundation for new and innovative approaches to exercise testing in the health care of children and adolescents.
