Abstract

Responses to acute cardiovascular variables in hypertensive patients undergoing a program of therapeutic exercises Objective: To evaluate the effects after treatment and the benefits of participation in hypertensive patients in a supervised program of therapeutic exercises. Method: Patients were submitted to a kinetic-functional evaluation; measurements of height and weight; analysis of resting heart rate (RHR) and measurement of blood pressure (BP). The intensity of training was done by calculating the heart rate training (HRT), between 60% and 75% heart rate reserve (HRR) and indirect value of VO2 demarcated by pulse frequency meters. Results: There was a reduction of the values of resting heart rate, systolic blood pressure and systolic maximum pressure with significant increase in VO2 after the period of indirect intervention. Conclusions: The program supervised therapeutic indices obtained significant acute change in cardiovascular variables.
