Effects of aerobic exercise on physical and physiological variables among coronary artery disease patients

Sivakumar A, Rakhi S

Abstract :

Aims: To prove the effect of aerobic exercise on physiological factors to improve the Cardiovascular endurance and and and prevent cardiac events among coronary artery patients. Methods: Thirty patients A total of 30 subjects with angiographically documented coronary artery disease patients were selected. Of the 60 invitees, 30 CAD patients, 35 –72 years, with chronic CAD fulfilled all criteria and were registered for the study. Training program for 7 days in a week followed by 2 month follow–up. After 2 month of their training program again the subjects were tested on the same criterion variables as such in the pre–test and considered this as the post–test. Results: In this subjects, the obtained value of ‘t’ test were 13,491 for angina pain, 27,167 or Rate perceived Dyspnea, 5.614 for Body mass index , –32,351 for Cooper test, 3.282 for Systolic Blood pressure and 9.825 for Diastolic Blood pressure. The obtained results of post score shown significant effect on physiological variables among coronary artery patients. The Aerobic exercise practice has produced significant improvement on cardiovascular endurance Conclusion: Overall healthy changes in cardiovascular endurance and decline in cardiac events in patients of CAD were closely related to aerobic adherence.
