| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Evaluate cardiac autonomic modulation using a heart rate monitor (Polar RS800cx) in elderly patients with systemic arterial hypertension undergoing low-intensity aerobic exercise. It is expected to find an increased heart rate variability, verified through the 30-second RMSSD, calculated with the aid of the Kubios HRV analysis software – version 2.0. For this, the HR behavior will be recorded beat-to-beat throughout the experimental protocol, and before using the RR series captured for data analysis, a digital filtering complemented by manual will be performed, to eliminate premature ectopic beats and artifacts, and only sets with more than 95% sinus beats will be included in the study. The RMSSD index corresponds to the square root of the sum of the square of differences between the RR intervals in the record, divided by the number of RR intervals at a given time minus one RR interval. For this analysis, the initial two minutes of the recovery period will be considered, forming 4 analysis windows with 30 seconds each. The HR behavior will be recorded beat by beat throughout the experimental protocol, and before using the RR series captured for data analysis, a digital filtering complemented by manual will be performed, to eliminate premature ectopic beats and artifacts, and only series with over 95% of sinus beats will be included in the study. | — |
