Six months of unsupervised exercise training lowers blood pressure during moderate, but not vigorous, aerobic exercise in adults with well-healed burn injuries
Abstract
Adults with well-healed burn injuries have greater cardiovascular disease morbidity and all-cause mortality compared with nonburn-injured adults. We found that exercise training reduced blood pressure (BP) during fixed-load cycling at 75 W and during moderate, but not vigorous, intensity cycling exercise in adults with well-healed burn injuries. These data suggest that 6 mo of unsupervised exercise training provides some degree of cardioprotection by reducing BP responses during submaximal exercise in well-healed burn-injured adults.
