Abstract

Introduction: Few studies have explored the outcome of hemodynamic components in cancer survivors in physical exercise programs. Objective: The main objective of this study was to verify acute and chronic changes in systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure during an exercise program for breast cancer survivors. Method: In a referral hospital, 24 surviving women participated in a physical exercise program. The BP was monitored with a digital wrist monitor, before and after the sessions. For pre and post-exercise comparison in each session, the t test for paired samples was used. For analysis of chronic effects, analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used, with repeated measures to identify possible differences in pre-exercise variables SBP and DBP throughout the 15 sessions. The level of significance was 5%. Results: It was noticed that, with the exception of the fourth and sixth sessions, the SBP levels decreased in all sessions after exercise (p≤0.05). For DBP, there was only a significant decrease after exercise in the first three sessions. For chronic effects, there was an average reduction in the values of SBP at rest throughout the sessions, with a hypotensive effect above 70% from the seventh session (p≤0.05). In DBP, differences in SBP values at rest were accentuated after the tenth session; when comparing with the values of DBP at rest, a hypotensive effect above 94% was observed. Conclusion: Survivors who adhered to the physical exercise program showed acute and chronic reduction in SBP and DBP.
