Preserved walking-induced cardioacceleration in the elderly despite reduced heart rate response to standing

In a study, the heart rate dynamics of a group of young and elderly subjects in response to standing from the supine position followed by walking at a self-determined, comfortable rate were determined. Although the heart rate response to standing was reduced in elderly subjects, significant cardioac...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	In a study, the heart rate dynamics of a group of young and elderly subjects in response to standing from the supine position followed by walking at a self-determined, comfortable rate were determined. Although the heart rate response to standing was reduced in elderly subjects, significant cardioaccleration was achieved in response to free walking.
