Experiments showed theIeft ventricular function in the hypertensive aged group (80 case) was lower than that in the aged normalblood pressure group (40 cases) , while the left ventricular fonction in the deficiency of Heart-energy hy-pertensive patients (46 cases) was lower than in the non-deficiency of Heart-energy hypertensive patients(34 cases) . After practising Qigong for 1 year, cardiac output was increased, the total peripheral resis-tance decreased and the ejection fraction mitral valve diastolic closing velocity and the mean velocity ofcircumferential fiber shortening tended to be increased. The results indicate Qigong has a regulatory ef-fect on haemodynamic alteration, as well as on improvement of the left ventricular function. Nailfold mi-crocirculation detection of 120 aged subjects was made. The results showed that hypertension had an ac-celerating effect on the disturbance of microcirculation. The incidence of disturbance of microcirculationwas 73. 91 % in the deficiency of Heart-energy hypertensive.patients, after 1 year of Qigong practice, theincidence of disturbance of microcirculation was 39. 13 % (P<O. 01) . The results suggest Qigong has aneffect on Heart-energy and regulation of the blood channel.展开更多
