Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Anatomy and Physiology - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
This study evaluated the effects ofacuteintense exercise on visual and auditory reaction timeMaterials and Methods Study included 40 males in the age group of 18 22 years Participants blood pressure and resting heart rate was measured using the sphygmomanometer and Pulse Ox heart rate monitor respectfully Pulse Ox was placed on nondominant index finger of the participantPC 1000 reaction timer was used for the measurement of VRT for red blue green light ART After the baseline measurements subject started to exercise on the stationary bike till heart rate was doubled and subject maintained exercise for 5 more minutes Immediately after the exercise post exercise heart rate post exercise blood pressure were measured VRT for all 3 colours ART were retestedResults were analysed statistically using Wilcox pairedt test comparing pre post exercise measurementsResults The mean values of VRT for red blue green ART was faster after exercise when compared to before exercise values the difference was statistically significant There was significant increase in heart rate systolic BP decrease in diastolic blood pressure after exercise compared to baseline valuesConclusion Results of the study can be associated to many people in improving their health in everyday life especially athletes senior citizensKeywords Visual reaction time Auditory reaction time Heart rate Blood pressure
