摘要
背景:冰敷按摩是一种常见的水疗方法。目前的研究是第一个此类研究,旨在评估冰按摩头部和脊柱对高血压患者血压和心率变异性的影响。材料与方法:招募15名高血压患者,平均±标准差(SD)年龄为48.87±11.17岁,只进行一次冰按摩头部和脊柱20分钟。在干预前和干预后立即评估血压和心率变异性。结果:本研究结果显示,与测试前评估相比,测试后评估的收缩压(p = p < 0.001)和心率(p = 0.012)显著降低,R-R间隔(心电图中相邻R波之间的间隔)显著增加(p = 0.001)。结论:冰敷头部和脊柱20 min可降低高血压患者血压和心率。然而,没有证据表明这对患者有任何显著的临床影响。
Effect of Ice Massage to Head and Spine on Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Variability in Patients with Hypertension: a Pilot Study.
Background: Ice massage is one of the common hydrotherapeutic procedures. The current study is first of its kind, conducted to evaluate the effect of ice massage to head and spine on blood pressure and heart rate variability in patients with hypertension.
Materials and methods: Fifteen hypertensive subjects with the mean ± standard deviation (SD) age of 48.87 ± 11.17 yrs were recruited and underwent only one session of ice massage to head and spine for 20 min. Blood pressure and heart rate variability were assessed before and immediately after the intervention.
Results: Results of this study showed a significant reduction in systolic blood pressure (p = <.001), diastolic blood pressure (p < .001) and heart rate (p = .012), and a significant increase in R-R Interval (the intervals between adjacent R waves in the electro cardiogram) (p = .001) in the post-test assessments compared to its respective pre-test assessments.
Conclusion: Results suggest that 20 min of ice massage to head and spine may reduce blood pressure and heart rate in patients with hypertension. However, there is no evidence that this provides any significant clinical impact for the patient.
