Central Hemodynamic Adjustments during Post-Exercise Hypotension in Hypertensive Patients with Ischemic Heart Disease: Concurrent Circuit Exercise versus High-Intensity Interval Exercise. A Preliminary Study.

ABSTRACT: Concurrent aerobic plus resistance exercise (RAE) and high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) are both effective at inducing post-exercise hypotension (PEH) in patients with hypertension. However, central hemodynamic changes associated with PEH in hypertensive subjects with underlying ischemic heart disease (IHD) have been poorly investigated. The study aim was to compare the acute effects produced by these two exercise modalities on left ventricular diastolic function and left atrial function. Twenty untrained male patients with a history of hypertension and IHD under stable pharmacological therapy were enrolled. Each patient underwent three exercise sessions: RAE, HIIE and a control session without exercise, each lasting 45 min. An echocardiography examination was performed before and be
