Effects of a tennis training program designed for cardiac rehabilitation of patients with low risk acute coronary syndrome

Abstract

At the moment, the society in which we live predominates slightly healthy ways of life (sedentary lifestyle, bad foods, stress…). At the moment, rates of cardiovascular diseases means a restless alarm to us due to constitutes the first reason of death in the countries developed due to the way of life that we take. Considering this social problem we have carried out a study in which there are approached the effects of a program of cardiac rehabilitation, based on training by means of the practice of the adapted tennis, on patients by acute coronary syndrome. Our objective was to determinate the technical level reached after the program of training and to specify if improvements were taking produced in precision ends between the pre-test and the post-test. The sample is composed of a group of sixth patients, with an average age of 53.57 ± 4.68. The systematic observation was in use as instrument of evaluation by means of the filming and the later analysis of the skill of I throb and of the precision reached in them, using sheets of record validated before. The statistical analysis of the results shows significant differences (p =.001 and p =.005) so much in the skill of I throb like in the precision reached after the intervention.
