Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Postexercise Hypertension - rated by measuring the clinical blood pressure (oscilométrcio for 50 minutes) and outpatient (oscillometric) for 24 hours before and after rest and combined exercise conducted in the academies of the third age (ATI-RJ). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Hemodynamics - assessed by measuring cardiac output, stroke volume, total peripheral vascular resistance and heart rate, by beating the cardiao beat by photopletismography before and after rest and exercise combined with ATI-RJ.;Autonomic modulation - assessed by measuring the heart rate variability using a cardiotachometer (spectral analysis) performed before and after rest and exercise ombined with ATI-RJ. | — |
