dc.description.abstractBackground: High blood pressure is one of the most importantrisk factor for cardiovascular disease. CVD are the number onecause of death globally. The present study was conducted toassess the correlation between Anthropometric parametersand Cardiovascular reactivity in normotensive students.Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study wasconducted among 100 MBBS students in the age group of 19to 22 years at KD Medical College, Hospital and ResearchCentre, Mathura subjects over the period of 2 months wereselected for the study. The subject will be asked to had a lightbreakfast then in the sitting position we will take theCardiovascular parameters and Anthropometric data of thesubject. This study will be significant if the calculated ‘p’ valueis < 0.5. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 20.Correlation between Cardiovascular Reactivity andAnthropometric parameters will be accessed by Pearson’sCorrelation method.Results: In the present study the mean age of the subjectswas 21 years, mean height was 1.65, mean weight was 67.24kg and mean BMI was 23.37. P value found to be statisticallynon-significant for BMI and heart rate, BMI and DBP, BMI andTransit time, BMI and Velocity. And P value found to bestatistically significant for BMI and SBP, BMI and MAP.Conclusion: Our findings in the study showed the existingpositive correlation between the BMI and the various reactivitymeasures of the heart such as heart rate, systolic bloodpressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure,pulse transit time and pulse velocity.en_US
