The effects of submaximal exercise on a treadmill on the recovery of the stiffness index and reflection index in men with untreated hypertension

Abstract: Aim. Increased arterial stiffness is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Adult men with untreated hypertension are at risk of future CVD. The study aimed to compare the effects of a submaximal exercise on the recovery of the two descriptors of arterial pressure waveform, i.e. stiffness index (SI) and reflection index (RI), between men with untreated hypertension (HA) and healthy peers. Material and Methods. The study included 70 Caucasian men with untreated primary HA and 30 normotensive men. Blood… Show more

“…Typically, SBP rises with an increasing workload (as the cardiac output increases during exercise in response to the increased demand of oxygen from the working muscles), and there is no change or a mild reduction in DBP, with a decline of both during post-exercise recovery in healthy individuals [ 30 , 31 ]. In our study, we focused on the variability of BP during and after the CPET in normotensives after COVID-19 using an original protocol that allowed the observation of this parameter over time, with particular emphasis on prolonging the surveillance of the post-exercise recovery phase to 15 min.…”
