Abstract

Objective: The aim of the study was to verify the hypotensive effect of a water aerobics session in normotensive and stage 1 hypertensive elderly women.
Method: twenty-eight physically independent elderly women divided into two groups: normotensive (N, n:10) and hypertensive (H, n:18) were submitted to water based exercise session lasting 45 minutes, the intensity being monitored by the subjective perception of exertion. Systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure were analyzed. Differences were analyzed by t-test or repeated measures ANOVA as appropriate and significance level of p<0.05.
Results: Sixty minutes after water aerobics, a significant reduction in SBP and DBP was found only in the hypertensive group. However, an effect on time, group and interaction was identified only on PAS.
Conclusion: an acute water aerobics session was able to promote a reduction in systolic, diastolic, mean and double product pressures only in hypertensive elderly women.
