Abstract:
With the intensification of the aging population phenomenon, the rehabilitation of elderly patients with cardiovascular diseases has become a top priority.Exercise Preconditioning(EP), as a form of exercise rehabilitation that generates myocardial protective effects, has been extensively researched.This paper adopts the literature review method to focus on summarizing the research progress of classical EP in cardiovascular rehabilitation for elderly patients.Classical EP refers to a single process in which repeated short bouts of high-intensity interval training(HIIT)lead to relative or absolute ischemia and hypoxia in the body, inducing the body to produce endogenous myocardial protective effects.This enhances the body's tolerance to ischemia and hypoxia, thereby protecting it from subsequent sustained ischemic-hypoxic injury.As a form of EP, HIIT has been widely recognized for its ability to induce myocardial protective effects.By summarizing its clinical protective effects and mechanisms, as well as the application of EP in the exercise rehabilitation protocols for elderly patients with cardiovascular diseases, this paper aims to provide more effective exercise rehabilitation guidance for elderly patients and reduce exercise-induced cardiovascular injuries.
