INFLUENCE OF TREATMENTAL PHYSICAL CULTURE ON HEMODYNAMIC INDICATORS OF ELDERLY PERSONS

Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, the number of elderly people is increasing throughout the world. Analysis of statistical data shows that blood pressure increases with the age. High arterial systolic pressure is the cause of the development of myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease, stroke and even death. Thus, the purpose was to study the influence of medical physical therapy to the state of the cardiovascular system of the elderly people at the hospital stage. 27 women and 20 men aged from 69 to 85 years old were investigated. The probable decrease in the average values of heart rate and coefficient of efficiency of the blood circulation system are recorded in patients of both groups. The classes of medical physical therapy offered by us contribute to a probable decrease in the average values of arterial systolic and diastolic pressure, medium arterial pressure, and a probable improvement in the average values of systolic and minute blood volumes.
