Question: What is acsm risk stratification?
ACSM risk stratification is a process of assessing the level of risk for cardiovascular complications associated with exercise. It is based on the presence or absence of signs or symptoms of cardiovascular, pulmonary or metabolic diseases, as well as the current level of physical activity and the desired intensity of exercise. ACSM risk stratification helps to identify clients who may need further medical evaluation and testing before starting or progressing an exercise program. It also provides recommendations for the appropriate supervision and setting for exercise testing and prescription.
