Exercise Testing in Hypertension Patients

Abstract

In China, hypertension becomes a dangerous factor to the public health in recent years. To study its impact on health status, an exercise testing was developed to examine the change of physiological parameter 107 hypertension patients and 68 healthy persons were volunteers for this testing. During testing, ECG, pulse wave, respiratory wave and blood pressure were recorded, According to the parameters measured, the WHOQOL-BERF results completed by all subjects, and the evaluation based on the physical function, statistical analysis was carried Out using Student's t-test and Logistic Regression, The results show that recovery time of BP, maximal systolic pressure, and the score of physical function could be used to reflect the difference between hypertension patients and healthy persons, In conclusion, the Logistic Regression model could be used to detect hypertension status by the exercise testing which did not depend on the sphygmomanometer merely.
