The world today is subject to constant evolution and diversity as to a more industrialized society where new technologies have a primary role, making human life more comfortable and the daily activities of living easier since the movement and communication are powered by gadgets and electronic devices. Today, cardiovascular diseases represent one of the leading causes of death worldwide in both developed and developing countries in the Third World. The fact that these are the leading cause of death results and a high consumption of drugs for treatment because the faster the effect they cause than that caused by other means. Hypertension is a medical condition characterized by an increase in blood pressure above 139/89 mmHg and considered a public health problem in developed countries, affecting about one billion people worldwide. For registration and diagnosis of arterial hypertension, it is customary to make the blood pressure reading in two or more medical visits. Those with blood pressure between 130/80 and 139/89 have doubled risk of developing hypertension than those with lower values.
Asymptomatic disease is easily detected, however, presents with severe and lethal complications if not treated early. A teaching Hospital with a total staff of 162 workers of the service area represents 37%, of which 41 are female and 19 male, mean age is 49 years including 15 that are sick represent 25%. If these data are analyzed from a purely demographic point of view, and considering the fact the progressive lengthening of the half-life in our environment with the consequent aging of the population, it is clear that heart disease, especially hypertension, characterized mostly by their weight are a daily reality and continuing our doctors with all that it represents a diagnostic and therapeutic level.
Even when workers of the service area of the Teaching Hospital are working in an institution where conditions are favorable for your health, there is a high incidence of hypertension in these, associated with sedentary work they do and to be overweight than they have. Of the problem situation before the next problem arises. How to contribute to control pressure levels in workers in the service area of the Teaching Hospital? The purpose of this research study is the process of rehabilitation of hypertensive patients. The scope of research is the use of physical culture as a means for the rehabilitation of hypertensive patients. The aim of our research is to design a strategy to control the blood pressure levels in workers in the service area of the Teaching Hospital. For the purposes of this article, we define the following scientific questions.
- What are the theoretical foundations that underpin the realization of physical exercise for the treatment of hypertension?
- What effect has arterial hypertension among workers in the service area of the Teaching Hospital?
- What is the general health status of hypertensive workers of the service area of the Teaching Hospital?
- What are the tastes and preferences with regard to physical exercise in hypertensive workers of the service area of the Teaching Hospital?
- What is the structure and content should be a strategy to normalize blood pressure in workers in the service area of the Teaching Hospital?
- What effect does working in the service area has on the proposed strategy?
To carry out this work we need to develop the following tasks
- Establishment of the theoretical research
- Diagnosis and characterization of the incidence of hypertension in workers in the service area of the Teaching Hospital, your health, tastes and preferences for physical exercise.
- Design of a strategy aimed at normalizing the blood pressure of workers in the service area of the Teaching Hospital, through physical exercise.
Concept and classification of hypertension
Is defined as the figures above 140 mmHg systolic and 90 mmHg diastolic, or that this history is present in individuals with normal at the time of collection, but under antihypertensive medication.
Blood pressure is defined by systolic and diastolic. Simply put it is maximum and minimum voltage at the time of heart break. According to the recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO) the values up to 140 mm Hg systolic and 90 mm Hg diastolic are considered normal. The values between the 140 - 160 mm Hg systolic and 90-95 diastolic are in the border area. hypertensives were defined as increases in blood pressure above 160 mm Hg systolic and 95 mm Hg diastolic.
High Blood Pressure
- Increased sensitivity to the consequences of abnormal lipids.
- Insulin intolerance.
- Reduced renal reserve.
- Alterations in the structure and function of the left ventricle.
Alterations in the adaptation of the proximal and distal arteries.
Risk Factors for Hypertension
Among the factors most relevant to hypertension are: age, sex, race, heredity, eating habits, body weight and plasma lipids.
Treatment of hypertension
Treatment of hypertension begins with a study and medical control and predisposing factors causing high blood pressure, to prescribe the treatment to follow which may include the following:
- Pharmacological
- Dietary
- Physical Activity
One of the risk factors for the disease of hypertension is very typical sedentary lifestyle of our modern times, so it is recommended to include in the patient's lifestyle, the practice of physical activity this year is from the point of view have an aerobic physiological character, isotonic and systematic.
Physical activity refers to a wide variety of movements and not to be confused or associated only with the sport, including moderate exercise such as dancing, walking, biking or climbing stairs.
Benefits of physical activity
- Improved physical conditions.
- Strengthens muscle and bone structure.
- Improves immune system.
- Retards or prevents chronic diseases.
- It reduces stress, anxiety and depression.
- Increased work capacity.
- Decreases resting heart rate.
- Increased stroke volume.
- Increases glucose uptake by muscle glucose lowering.
- Increases the sensitivity of red cells to insulin.
- Improves function.
- Improves nerve activity.
- Promotes blood and lymphatic circulation.
- Increases vital capacity and energy.
- Stabilizes blood pressure.
- Reduces weight.
There is a treatment for people suffering from hypertension, so I made a plan for using as a means of therapeutic intervention, physical activity. The exercises proposed for the treatment of people with hypertension should be easy to implement, because the vast majority of these people have never practiced exercises, first by the lack of knowledge about the benefits offered by the same in that condition , and secondly by age presenting patients.
Exercise plan for the treatment of hypertensive patients -
Types of exercise to treat hypertension:
- Warm up: Stretching and joint mobility.
- Strengthening exercises: free tools and implements.
- Aerobics.
- Breathing exercises.
- Muscle relaxation exercises.
Strategy to normalize hypertension in workers in the service area of the Teaching Hospital,
The definitions have the following regularities:
- It is a management process.
- Implies a conscious and continuous coordination.
- It involves an exploration of reality.
- Designing the future setting achievable goals.
- Is aimed at achieving the objectives.
- Provides a set of actions that favor the transition from real state to the desired state of reality.
- Transform a reality.
- Susceptible to modification or adaptation from the results of their assessment.
- Elements that are present in the strategy:
- Existence of dissatisfaction about the phenomena, objects or processes at a given context or scope.
- Diagnosing the current situation.
- Approach, objectives and goals to achieve in certain periods of time.
- Definition of activities and actions that meet the objectives set and responsible entities.
- Resource planning and viable methods for implementation.
- Provide for the evaluation of results.
Analysis of the results of the workers - studied diagnosis
Suppose, there are 15 employees with hypertension, which represents 25% of the total, predominantly female, as the manifestation of this disease. You can also see the high incidence of overweight workers with a total of ten, which constitutes 66% of the general, predominantly female representatives, all related to the high level of inactivity that is manifested in 30 % of the population.
Conclusion
Now after going through above article, one can conclude that physical exercise is an important means to stabilize and lower the blood pressure of hypertensive patients. Workers in the service area of a teaching hospital are characterized by a high incidence of abnormal values of weight according to height, age, sex, secondary to a large number of hypertension cases. It was possible to design a strategy that includes actions necessary to implement the practice of therapeutic physical exercise in hypertensive patients of the service area of the from your needs, tastes and preferences. This strategy is devised for the rehabilitation of hypertensive workers for considerably reduced rates of blood pressure, body weight, and less spending money on these patients.
