Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Improvements are expected in pulmonary capacity, heart rate variability, and blood pressure, assessed via spirometry, heart rate monitor, and digital sphygmomanometer, respectively. Specifically, a minimum 5% increase in respiratory amplitude and R-R interval, along with at least a 5% reduction in systolic blood pressure, are anticipated. All data will be collected immediately before and after the intervention.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
No secondary outcomes are expected.
