Key result
Acute sessions of resistance exercise at 60% and 90% intensity altered autonomic modulation in COPD patients, increasing heart rate variability indexes during recovery compared to baseline.
Why the study?
Does an acute session of resistance exercise alter cardiac autonomic modulation in patients with COPD?
Does an acute session of resistance exercise alter cardiac autonomic modulation in patients with COPD?
Acute resistance exercise alters cardiac autonomic modulation in COPD patients during the recovery period, regardless of exercise intensity.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support resistance exercise safety in COPD autonomic monitoring; leaves open long-term outcome benefits.
Ramos et al. (2015) studied Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (n=12). Acute session of resistance exercise vs. Baseline was evaluated on Cardiac autonomic modulation via heart rate variability. Acute sessions of resistance exercise at 60% and 90% intensity altered autonomic modulation in COPD patients, increasing heart rate variability indexes during recovery compared to baseline.
