1. SP – systolic blood pressure; DP – diastolic blood pressure; HR – heart rate. 2. Blood pressure and heart rate before and after intervention were expressed by (Mean±SD). 3. Systolic blood pressure difference = (systolic blood pressure after intervention - systolic blood pressure before intervention); Diastolic pressure difference = (diastolic pressure after intervention - diastolic pressure before intervention); Heart rate difference = (heart rate after intervention - heart rate before intervention). 4. If the difference is positive, the corresponding index increases after intervention; if the difference is negative, the corresponding index decreases after intervention. 5. The difference between groups was tested by paired sample t test.
