Comparison of reflex, resistance training, and core activities using change in blood pressure over time after spontaneous coronary artery dissection.

Comparison of reflex, resistance training, and core activities using change in blood pressure over time after spontaneous coronary artery dissection. Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2019 Jan;32(1):113-115 Authors: Brown K, Adams J, McCullough PA Abstract A 53-year-old female athlete with spontaneous coronary artery dissection, acute myocardial infarction, and infrarenal abdominal aortic dissection enrolled in a 6-week cardiovascular rehabilitation (CR) program. During CR sessions, the patient performed a combination of aerobic, resistance training, and core activities. In the final CR session, the patient performed reflex activities and the forced Valsalva maneuver. The patient's electrocardiogram, blood pressure, heart rate, and transient change in blood pressure over time were continuously monitored and recorded. The patient completed CR without negative symptoms or adverse events. PMID: 30956602 [PubMed]
