Description
Summary:Materials and Methods: Normotensive subjects in the age group of 18-22 years were selected and classified into two groups, based on body mass index and parental history of hypertension. Heart Rate Variability; Isotonic Exercise; Obesity and Parental History of Hypertension; Frequency Domain Indicators of Heart Rate Variability INTRODUCTION Heart rate variability (HRV) is a physiological phenomenon, which is the beat-to-beat variation in time of consecutive heartbeats. In spite of limitation of less sample size and wide distribution of values, the present study emphasizes the necessity to improve vagal tone and lower sympathetic tone in obese young adults with hypertensive parents, so that they do not progress into the stage of prehypertension. Frequency domain analysis of heart rate variability in young obese adults with parental history ofhypertension during isotonic exercise: A comparative study.
