- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method A decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure (<140/90 mmHg) or maintenance of normal values (up to 120/80 mmHg) is expected, verified through clinical and outpatient measurements, in the post-intervention period.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method It is expected to verify the decrease in blood pressure reactivity through physical and mental stress tests; to increase the heart rate variability of volunteers who do not use beta-blockers, evaluated using heart rate monitors; improve sleep quality, as measured using the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index; improve body composition, reducing fat mass and increasing lean mass, measured through bioimpedance; increase functional skills, assessed through functional tests specific to the elderly population; reduce to ideal levels the values of total cholesterol, fractions and triglycerides, in addition to glycemia, measured through laboratory blood tests; reduce concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines, measured through laboratory tests of blood and saliva after interventions
