Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Physiology - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

Background: Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is considered a good indicator of autonomic control related to cardiovascular health, and has been studied in a range of situations in order to determine the variables that influence it. Aims and Objectives: To study Cardiovascular parameters in Males and Females at Rest. Methodology: The present study was carried out in 60 normal healthy males and 60 normal healthy females between the age group of 19 and 20 years. The normal subjects were selected among the students of nursing college of S.R.T.R. medical college, Ambajogai and T.B.G. College of polytechnic, Ambajogai, with no special reference to their physical training. Parameters which were compared in same sex (Such as females or males) for before and after the exercise, the paired ‘t’ test is applied. Results: Significantly more heart rate was in females than males. Systolic and diastolic blood pressures are very highly significantly and highly significant respectively more in males than females. Cardiac work is significantly more in females than males. Conclusion : It can be concluded from our study that high resting heart rate, Cardiac work was found in Females while Systolic and diastolic blood pressures more in males than females respectively.
