The effects of Sae-Cheon-Nyeon Health Gymnastics on endothelin-1 and nitrite in hypertensive old women.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to verify exercise effects in reducing the blood pressure by analyzing the effects of Sae-Cheon-Nyeon Health Gymnastics on endothelin-1 and nitrite in hypertensive old women. The subjects were 29 old women (older 65 ages) who participated in Sae-Cheon-Nyeon Health Gymnastics for elderly program and they were classified into HC (hypertension Control) group 10 of women, HE (hypertension exercise) group 9 of women with stage 1 hypertension (SBP 140~159 mmHg or DBP 90~99 mmHg) and NE (normal exercise) group of 10 women. Exercise program was 60 minutes per day and 3 times per a week for 12 weeks. Sae-Cheon-Nyeon Health Gymnastics (50% HRR and about 6 minutes) was performed 4 times and active rest performed 3 times for 1 minutes so that rest blood pressure, heart rate, ET-1 and nitrite might be analyzed. The results of the research showd that systolic blood pressure, heart rate, endothelin-1 and nitrite had a significant difference between the periods, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and nitrite had a significant difference between groups. It was shown that long-term Sae-Cheon-Nyeon Health Gymnastics increased nitrite and decreased blood pressure. Therefore, it be suggested to help lower blood pressure of hypertensive elderly.
