Effect of Necktie on Heart Rate, Blood Pressure and Ankle Brachial Index among Male Office Workers
Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the effect of a necktie on heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP) and ankle brachial index (ABI) Methods: In a cross-sectional study, a total of 56 clients were enrolled of age group 25-35 years (group-A) and 36-45 years (group-B) wearing necktie for more than 1 year. Heart rate (carotid pulse), blood pressure and ABI of the clients were measured by Oscillometric Sphygmomanometer. Results: There was a significant difference in HR of group A as compared to group B, no significant difference was seen in systolic blood pressure (SBP) of group-A but some significant difference was demonstrated in group-B. For diastolic blood pressure (DBP), there was much significant difference seen in group-B as compared to group-A. There was no significant change seen for ABI in any of the groups. Conclusion: A necktie may increase heart rate and decreases blood pressure in both the age groups but have no effect on ABI.
