“Assess The Relationship Between HRR And Cardiac Biochemical Parameters Among Nursing Students”

Abstract

Background of the Study: Cardio-respiratory fitness has a major role in reduction of incidence of
cardiovascular disorders among the population of India. HRR (Heart rate recovery) is one of the prime
factor which act as an indicator for cardio-respiratory fitness. HRR can be influenced by the body’s
cardiac biochemical parameters.
Aim: The aim of the study is to find out the relationship between HRR (Heart rate recovery) and Cardiac
Biochemical Parameters among Nursing Students
Methods: Quantitative exploratory research design was adopted for this study.150 BSc Nursing
students from KGMU College of Nursing were selected for this study. Association and correlation
between cardio-repertory determinant (HRR) and demographic variables were analysed using
inferential and non-inferential statistical method. The association between the variables was assessed by
using Chi square and fisher exact significance test and correlation was assessed by Kendall's Tau C.
Results: The study results projects that HDL and T4 are significantly associated with HRR. The variable
HDL is very slightly positively (0.175) correlated with Heart rate recovery and the variable T4is very
moderately positively correlated (0.355)with Heart rate recovery.
Conclusion: The study result projects HDL & T4 associated with HRR. Also showing a very slight
positive correlation between HRR and HDL and T4 is moderately positive correlated with HRR.
