Abstract
The bias observed between methods developed to assess the baroreflex control of Heart Rate (HR) lead to gain further insight into those methods. In two groups of subjects were studied: a group of young adults, and a group of middle-aged adults, cardiovascular (CV) and respiratory parameters were continuously recorded during a graded bicycle exercise. This study focused on the sequence method, and its particular time sequence pattern (up and down sequences). Features of respectively the up and down sequences were analysed through comparative analysis and sequence pattern analysis. No significant changes were noticed between the up and down sequences for both the number of sequences and the baroreflex gain. A synchrony was present according to the phase of respiration and also with the diastolic arterial pressure (dap). It may suggest a relation between the baroreflex function and the Bainbridge reflex in governing CV oscillations.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
