운동과학 편 : 고혈압 환자의 운동강도 차이가 혈압과 혈청지질에 미치는 효과

This study was carried out to examine the effects of difference of exercise intensity on blood pressure and serum lipid by dividing female hypertensive patients with over 50-year-old into three groups which are low intensity exercise group of 50~60% maximal heart rate, high intensity exercise group of 70~80% maximal heart rate, and control group, and by making them to exercise aquarobics for 12 weeks. Also, it was implemented to provide effective intensity of exercise and program for prevention, treatment and health improvement of hypertensive patients. The results of this study are as follow. There was no statistically significant difference in blood pressure changes on both low and high intensity exercise groups during stable phase after 12 weeks exercise program. However, blood pressure was numerically decreased for both groups and numerically increased in the control group. In the serum lipid, HDL-C was significantly increased for both low and high intensity exercise group after exercise program. LDL-C was numerically increased in the low intensity exercise group. Also, TC was significantly increased in the low intensity exercise group. TG was numerically increased in the low intensity exercise group, and decreased in the high intensity exercise group. Leukocyte count among immune material presented significantincrease in the high intensity exercise group and numerically increased in the low intensity exercise group. From the results of this study, regular aquarobics exercise to hypertensive patients for 12 weeks was concluded that it was effective on decreasing blood pressure to some extent. High intensity exercise was considered that it was effective on improving serum lipid.
